The Community Brew: Cause We're Worth It



Today I am linking up with Madison of The Wetherills Say I Do and Rachel of Oh Simple Thoughts for their community brew linkup. This month the theme is open to share whatever is on your heart. So today, I hope you can join me with your cup of coffee or tea and sit back while I share my heart with you.

A few months back She Reads Truth did a study on Hebrews, and since I am currently in a bible study right now that is studying the book of Hebrews I wanted to go back and read it again, particularly chapter 9.

Hebrews 9:24 says: "For Christ has entered, not into holy places made with hands, but which are copies of the true things, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf" 

 Reading this makes me think of all the times that I've run from God or not done what he's told me to do, or pretty much did my own thing.

It also reminds me that of the "worth" that God places on each and every one of us.  God gives his own son on our behalf. He risked it all for us, cause he thought we we're worth it. while He could have just walked away and said, "there's no way I'm doing that" but he didn't he went through with it.  Just thinking about that gives me goosebumps. Daily he tells us that we're worth it, through his word and the grace that he gives us each and every day. He did it for us, rest in the truth of Hebrews 9:24, and take to heart in the words below from the devotional at She Reads Truth.

 "When Christ groaned "it is finished" from the cross and the veil ripped from Heaven to Earth, it was indeed FINISHED once and for all. We just get confess and believe" --She Reads Truth
Where do you see worth in your lives? 

Be sure to linkup with Madison and Rachel, and check out their amazing blogs!

    I feel worth in the fact that God forgives me and shows me mercy and favor when I truly don't deserve it!

The Wetherills Say I Do | Guest Post

Founders Note: Today on the blog we have one of our August sponsors Madison of The Wetherills Say I Do . She is also one of my blogging friends, I have enjoyed working with her this month and am excited to continue in the future, she is a sweet girl with a big heart for others and Jesus! Today She is sharing her heart on this months theme: Beauty in the Brokenness. So be sure to check out her blog at the links below! If you've ever heard a group of people share their testimonies, a lot of them have a common thread: brokenness. A lot of now believers had to come to a very low point in their lives before they had their breaking moment of calling out to Jesus. Have you ever wondered why that is? Why is it that so many of us have to hit rock bottom before we'll realize our infinite need for a Savior? I don't know the answer to that question, but I do know that in my darkest moments, I've seen the Lord hand out grace and turn brokenness into beauty. We all tend t...

Four Tips for Creating Community through Blogging

1. Reach out to other bloggers:  this is an  essential when wanting to get into community. It can be as small as a comment on their blog, or an email. I have built relationships with other bloggers through email, commenting on their blogs, etc. For me it has been a beneficial thing, to create community in something that I really didn't know there was any.   This is a great post on why bloggers need community.  2. Join a blog group on Facebook, or some other social media group: I have joined the Peony Project on facebook which is a group for other christian bloggers. It's a great group and i would definitely recommend it!  3. Make meaningful comments: when I say meaningful comments I don't mean that you have to write a novel, but at least engage with the post somehow. Check out Madison's post on how to comment on blogs to find out more.  4. Plan a blogger Meetup : ...
