When will I be recognized, justified? I am worthy. World, see me, for I have so much to offer you. If you would, just allow me the honor, please. Can’t you see I am trying to be successful here? World, please just let me in… just for a minute. If you do, I promise I will prove to you that I can cut it; that I am worthy of your attention.
I just don’t understand why I can’t seem to make it in the world. I am good at my job. I don’t know why I can’t just get my big break.
I can succeed, if I am just given the chance.
But wait… I have already been given the chance; the chance for more; the chance to rise up and be so much more than the world.
I mean, really, is that all I’m worthy of – the WORLD? Why not so much more?
“10)And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11)being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and joyfully 12)giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. 13)For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14)in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” - Colossians 1:10-14
My Father gave me a chance at something way bigger than just the world – and I am successful at way more than just the world. My God saved me from this world; saved me from having to try to just scrape by here. He saved me from a lesser god – man.
He made me good at His work, and that’s much bigger than my own little dreams. He has made me worthy of Himself; not the measly little world of man.
Since this is true, why would I ever want to be worthy of just the world? Why wouldn’t I want so much more? Why wouldn’t I want to be rescued from the dominion of darkness and be taken into the kingdom of the Son, Jesus?
I have been qualified to be worthy of so much more – have you?
