A List: The Unworthy - Paul

Have you ever felt unworthy of someone’s love or attention? Our sense of self-worth can be dictated by our own past sin or by how we perceive that others see us. This was the case with Saul, the Pharisee who relentlessly murdered Christians in the name of upholding the Jewish law. Upon encountering the risen Christ, his life is radically changed. As God speaks a new identity into his life, Saul becomes Paul, the famed teacher of the gospel. His infamous reputation makes Christians doubt his worthiness, and Paul calls himself “the least worthy” among the apostles. God not only accepts the unworthy; He celebrates them. There is a new destiny for each one who feels unworthy if they choose to find their worth in Him. With that choice, pride diminishes, and gratitude takes over. So, if you are feeling unworthy today, don’t despair. God values the unworthy.
