You Are God’s Starting Point – Part 2
Dr RJ Sing · 1 min read
“Yet You have made him but a little lower than God [or heavenly beings], and You have crowned him with glory and honor. 6 You made him to have dominion over the works of Your hands; You have put all things under his feet.”
Down people cannot lift down people. Only happy people can make others happy. Only positive people can make others positive. You are God’s starting point. The greatest possible achievement in life is to be the terrific person God created you to be. To disregard that noble purpose results in frustration, unhappiness and deterioration. The reason there is so much loneliness, depression, drug and sex abuse, insecurity and even suicide, is because people do not value themselves.
They see themselves as a speck in the universe, a number in a computer, of no personal significance. They look into their mirror and feel insignificant, helpless and hopeless. But when you discover your value as a creation of God, to represent Him, your life takes on purpose, a reason for being. You suddenly realize: I am made for success. I was not put here to stand in a social-aid line, to feel shame nor to be lonely.
God and I can walk together. We can change our world. You look in the mirror as anew day dawns, and you no longer see a despondent, rejected and downcast nobody. You see God’s creation in human flesh.
