Kelly Blue Book yourself
What's your trade-in value? Ever thought about that. It's been one of those couple of weeks where I have to ask myself... what's your value Jenny? Do I have a value? To anyone? To my husband? To my children? To my friends? To God? Of course I know the Godly answer, yes I have a value and I know He first loved me and I LOVE HIM. But, I'm in this world and sometimes the world takes its toll on me. Don't take this to seriously, but you know that certain people use you for what your worth is and then trade you in. People do it. I hate to think about this but I'm sure that at some point in my life I have caused someone to question their value? Employers do it. Spouses do it. Friends do it. Thankfully, I have a marriage that depends on each other's values to make it work. I don't know how we would work as a unit if we didn't. Another thankful, I have an employer that does not degrade or lessen my value at work. Last but not least,friends. True friends are few and far between and their values are priceless. Priceless comes only with "true". Typically things that are priceless, I never trade! I keep and guard because they are priceless. It's the not-so-priceless that get stamped with a value and on the market for the trade-in. Ever feel like you are on your way to the "yard sale"? Oh yes... it's been a yard sale kind of couple weeks! Ever feel like searching your body for the "value stamp"? Wonder what it is? What is my trade-in value? Where's the Kelly Blue Book when you need it? So, at the end of the day, I believe I'll take my value from my Maker. After all, it's my value with Him that matters the most. I think I'll take a break from searching for my worldly "value" stamp.
