Beauty = Value

In Miami, beauty is pursued at all costs for oneself or else one does not have value.

A lot of people, but especially Miami-ans, find their value in wealth and appearance. If they have these two things they think they are satisfied. This could be compared to sitting down for a big dinner and being served chips, candy, pop, and other junk foods. Although the foods look good, and taste good, they will not leave you full for long or satisfied. Still, people think this junk food will be enough for them. In reality, the only thing that will satisfy the needs of every persons soul is the gospel.

What is interesting about Miami is there are a lot of people who have heard of Jesus before, and some actually call themselves Christians. For these people, they think they have the gospel, yet they are still consuming junk food.

In training, they taught us the gospel in 4 simple points as a way to easily teach it to others.

• God loves you and offers a wonderful plan for your life.
• All of us sin and our sin has separated us from God.
• Jesus Christ is God's only provision for our sin. Through Him we can know and experience God's love and plan for our life.
• We must individually receive Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; then we can know and experience God's love and plan for our lives.

 

If you would like to experience God personally, want to experience the fullness that he will bring you, or if you are sick of feeling empty by junk food-> call, message, or text me and I would love to talk to you about how God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life. <3 Joy
