Did you know that researchers estimate the average American is exposed to 300-3,000 commercial message a day! 300-3,000 times each day we are told we are not enough, we need to be skinnier, healthier, faster, smarter, richer, wiser, calmer, happier. Have more energy, more clothes, more cars, more food, more stuff, bigger house, better marriage. We are told 300-3,000 times a day we neither have enough nor are enough.


That is a lie.

We are enough. The Lord says so.

The Lord says we are…

Blessed

Chosen

A disciple

Clean

Friend of God

Peaceful

Joyous

Appointed

Fruitful

Not alone

Not The worlds

Someone the Lord remains in

On my way home

The Lords

Beloved

Someone the Lord chooses to form and takes time to shape

Alive

Sanctified by truth

In union with Jesus

Fought for

Precious

Honored

Called His bride

Someone who enthralls the Lord with my beauty

Redeemed

No longer a slave

Rescued

Called

Pardoned

Called God’s darling

Thirst-quenched

Offered abundance

Saved

Waiting

Free

Known

A reflection of Christ

Someone God chooses to use

Enjoyed

Healed

Celebrated

Worth pursuing

Loved


What would happen if we read this list 300-3000 times each day? Would we begin to believe it?
