-
Self-esteem is a good thing but God-esteem is even better. In the Bible, 2 Corinthians 5-6 says that in Christ we are the righteousness of God, that God is our father and we are his sons and daughters. Ephesians 2 says we are alive in Christ; a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit. So, who are you? You are loved and forgiven, a child of the King. Worthy of respect and love. A gift, ready and able to give yourself in the service of others. Now that's the truth. Why don't we start living it?

Announcer: For FamilyLife Blended®, here’s Ron Deal.
Ron: Self-esteem is a good thing. But God-esteem…that’s even better. In the Bible,
2 Corinthians 5-6 says that in Christ we are the righteousness of God, that God is our father and we are his sons and daughters. Titus 3 says we are heirs of eternal life and Ephesians 2 says we are alive in Christ; a dwelling place for the Holy Spirit.
So, who are you? You are loved and forgiven, a child of the King. Worthy of respect and love. A gift, ready and able to give yourself in the service of others. Now that’s the truth. Why don’t you say we start living it? For FamilyLife Blended I’m Ron Deal.
