Valor

Tonight, I'm speaking to the worship team at Dakota Ridge Assembly in Littleton, Colorado.

I'm super excited.

I'm talking to them about being a worshiper of valor.

The same root word we get the word value from.

Our value is linked to the valor, or courage we walk in.

The moment we perceive our worth, we can walk in a confidence and boldness unknown to us before, because our worth is in the eye of our Beholder.

It's kind of like Antiques Roadshow.

Have you ever watched that program?

Biker Man and I love to see the reaction people have to the (what we think is) junk that they bring to be appraised.

Why does it turn out to be worth so much?

Because someone (many times, a collector with waaay too much time on their hands) finds it extremely valuable.

Well, God found you to be so valuable, He sent His Son to earth to take your place in death so you could be raised to new life with Him.

Humbling, isn't it?

Makes you want to walk worthy of your calling, be it music, teaching, parenting, pastoring, cleaning, serving homeless, feeding the hungry... generally living out this life we were created to worship God with.
