What is worth more? Your brethren in Christ or a million dollars in gold coins?

If you had a million dollars in gold coins in a suit case, how would we treat the suit case? We would in most case keep our eyes on it. We would in most case protect it. We would keep it in a safe place. We would keep it close to us. We may open the case and frequently look at the beautiful gold coins. We may take some gold coins out and we would clean and shine it. We would look and perhaps admire the coins. We would give it a lot of attention. We may even fight for it if someone attempted to steal it. And even for some people, they may risk their lives to keep and protect it.

The brothers and sisters around us have been bought by the precious Blood of Jesus Christ. His Blood is worth more than all of creation. His Blood is worth more than all of the heavens. His Blood has purchased us. We are covered with HIS Blood.

But how do we treat one another? Do we treat one another with such preciousness? Do we treat one another looking at one another who have been bought by a price that is priceless? No, in many instances, we treat one another with contempt. We treat one another with little value. We continue to see each other with our own eyes rather than His eyes. We continue to strife, bicker, and slander one another. We continue to act like the children of the enemy rather than the children of God.

We all continue to fall short of His Glory. We all need to repent for not loving His people as He loves us. The Holy Spirit grieves so much as His people are so stiffed neck and stubborn. Just as in the days of old, His people had a hard time of obeying HIM. They still are sheep who continue to go astray. His people are still seeking their own ways. Father God grieves so much as HE truly desires a real personal relationship with HIS children. Many of His children think they are having a relationship with HIM but in realty they are deluded with themselves. They seek their own ways.

The Lord grieves as so many of His children are not making it home. HE is asking us to repent, submit, and obey to His authority. HE wants to give us resurrection life. HE wants to bless us. HE wants to give us abundant life. HE wants us to go deeper with HIM so that HE may share HIS secrets with us. HE wants to spend time with HIS children.

His people need to repent. We need to repent. We need to stop being so selfish for ourselves. We need to stop seeking our own ways. We need to stop seeking to save our own selves. We need to die to ourselves and be cleansed. We need to let HIM reign in our lives. We need to put everything down and submit to HIM. We have been bought by the most precious Blood of our Lord. HE looks at us with such preciousness. Do you see each other with such preciousness or is a million dollars in gold coins worth more?
