The Bible Matters Because _______________. Sample

By ShareWord

God made you. Don’t yawn or roll your eyes—it’s a big deal! And it’s important for you to remember that all day today. 

Not for your own sake so you can feel beautiful or handsome all day. No, it’s so you can help others around you understand the same truth. When people truly believe God’s role in creating them, a spark of hope is ignited in their hearts.

Think about it. We look at a stunning flower and marvel at God’s handiwork. We go to the zoo and watch the giraffes and tigers and gorillas and find ourselves saying, “Wow!” a lot. 

Even spiders—super creepy and enough to make your skin crawl sometimes. But have you ever watched them construct a web? Whether or not you can stomach that idea, you have to admit what they’re able to do is incredible.  

God made you, too. He made you in His image. And He made you wonderfully complex. He wired you with abilities and traits that position you for something unique in this world.

So why is it so easy to marvel at the way a beaver builds a dam, but struggle at believing you’re something special? 

Remember: you have value because of who made you. The first question asked when a painting is discovered in a dusty attic is, “Who’s the artist?” Then we immediately search for a signature. No, we don’t have “God” tattooed on us when we’re born, but we may as well have. 

And here’s the proof of your value: the great rescue plan we talked about yesterday. God put that plan in motion so His creation could spend an eternal lifetime with Him. 

So, knowing you’re here on earth because God wants you to be—that He made you at the time and in the place He did—should give you a new sense of hope. Of value. Of significance. Of purpose. 

You’re a masterpiece that God created. This should impact how you live, how you face the day, how you make decisions. 

Now look around you. Your family. Or the ones you work with everyday. The strangers you meet in the routines of your life. The people you randomly bump into.

God made them, too. Do they know it? You understand how it changes everything—but do they? 

You were rescued because God made you and He wanted to fix your broken relationship. Remember that all day—and share it with someone else.
