What am I worth?

I liked this.  Charles is very good at speaking and I enjoy his teachings.  I want to ponder on some things that he said.  Like when I used to go to WOG.  Although Gary was very good, the church wasn't.  Charles really summed up what I felt and just couldn't place it.  He said, it was like I didn't belong.  They were all "good, perfect Christian's" and I wasn't and I felt out of place.  He called them 'museum churches'.  The kind of place where everything appears to be perfect and in order.  Wow, he hit that one on the head!  He went to a church back east that was multi-level.  All the '12 steppers' went to the basement to 'get fixed'.  In reality we are all broken and in need of repair and it would do us all good to 'go to the basement' instead of just pretending that we are perfect and our lives are perfect.  I loved that!

In the eyes of this world I am worth nothing.  But in the eyes of God I am priceless.   I think this helps me along in my journey with men.  I used men and wanted to be used by them.  But that makes me worthless, used.  I always told my ex that I wanted to be worth his effort.  I never was.  Well, I want to make sure that I am worth something to 'him' when he comes along.  I want to be worth his effort.
