I love collecting things. I have a problem. I saw a post on Pinterest about coins that are really valuable online the other day, and this thought has been taking over ...
What makes the coins shown so valuable is that they are different. They don't look like all the other ones. That sets them apart. Unique... Different... It gives them more value.
I'm so guilty of wanting to blend in- to mute or soften or cover up the things that make me different and unique in order to be the same as everyone else.
The coin post has become a reminder to me to love how God has made each of us differently to stand out. Even when it seems like what people would call a "flaw", it brings value and glory to him.
Instead of muting my enthusiasm or joy, let me use them. They are of value.
