Profitable Training! (part 12 of 14)

Bodily exercise can IMPACT OUR SELF-ESTEEM. If we feel better and look better, we tend to think better about ourselves and what we can accomplish in life.

Training in godliness is the greatest way to IMPACT SELF-ESTEEM. Can there be any better feeling than to know we are right with God and have the assurance of all His blessed promises? To know how God views us ought to be a sure boost to our ESTEEM. It is the Lord Who makes us look good!

John encouraged. . .
"(1) See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called CHILDREN OF GOD; AND SO WE ARE. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. (2) Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is." ( 1 John 3:1-2 ESV)

What a marvelous provision. What a great thing to be known by God as His child. He values us enough to have made available all that is necessary to make that relationship possible. Praise God for such a position as He has placed us in.

Have a great day KNOWING GOD VALUES THE RELATIONSHIP!
