1 Cor. 1:28-30 (NLT)
God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important...

Despised to be Loved

1 Cor. 1:28-30 (NLT)
God chose things despised by the world, things counted as nothing at all, and used them to bring to nothing what the world considers important, [29] so that no one can ever boast in the presence of God.
     [30] God alone made it possible for you to be in Christ Jesus. For our benefit God made Christ to be wisdom itself. He is the one who made us acceptable to God. He made us pure and holy, and he gave himself to purchase our freedom.

"Bobby" our new bob-tailed (Manx) kitten is the latest member of our loving family of cats.  He was tossed away in the alley behind our home near our garbage dumpster.  Despised by his previous owners, he was tossed out like so much trash to make it on his own.  Alone, frightened and abandon, all he knew to do was to cry out piteously under a bush near the trash.

Little did he know his cries were being heard by the greatest cat lover in the universe, or at least the neighborhood...my wife, Lisa.  She responded according to her nature, to love and protect kitties, and followed the cries to "Bobby". What was formerly a despised kitten, treated like trash, immediately became acceptable...a part of a new family filled with love.

Just like so many of us who were rejected and despised by a world we held so dear, Jesus was listening through our tears as we cried out from a life that had so quickly turned to trash.

If we let Him pick us up, love us according to His nature, we too will become acceptable, again.  Only this time it will be in a much better family.  We will become children of God and members of His Christian family on earth with the hope of eternal life in heaven, where there will be no more tears or sorrow.  What was rejected and despised by this world is now acceptable and loved by God.

Rev. 21:3-4 (NLT)
I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, "Look, the home of God is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. [4] He will remove all of their sorrows, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. For the old world and its evils are gone forever."

Thank God we were despised to be loved!  Amen.
