True Worth

Philippians 3:8 continued.
Paul counts both losses and gains as losses
in order to gain one thing: 'The surpassing
worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.'

I looked that verse in the Amplified Bible:
'The surpassing worth and supreme 
advantage of knowing Christ Jesus my
Lord, and of progressively becoming more
deeply and intimately acquainted with 
Him, of perceiving, recognizing, and
understanding Him more fully, more 
clearly.'

ONE THING I asked of the Lord,
that will I seek after;
that I may dwell in the house of the Lord
all the day of my life,
To gaze upon the beauty of the Lord
and to meditate in his temple.
(Ps 27:4)

These verses make my heart sing!
The Christian life is not an "ought,"
but a relationship.
