We Don’t Have To Prove Ourselves

Send us Fan MailWe Don’t Have to Prove OurselvesSometimes we feel pressure to prove ourselves.To prove that we’re successful enough.Capable enough.Good enough.And sometimes we place that same burden on others.We expect people to earn our respect.Earn our acceptance.Earn our love.But the witness of scripture points us in a different direction.Paul reminds us that while we were still weak, while we were still far from who we were created to be, God’s love is already being poured out for us. (Romans 5:6-8)Not after we prove ourselves.Not after we get everything right.Not after we become worthy.But now.Love is not a reward for achievement. It is a gift.And the invitation is for us to freely give what we have freely received.We don’t need to prove ourselves worthy of love. And we can stop demanding others do so as well.I’m Horace McMillon. This is 60 Seconds of Hope.
