Our Market Value

   
TOP del.icio.us digg

Our “Thought” this week is on “Our Market Value”. Do you know that every individual has a price tag or a market value? Have you ever gone to a market place and observed how business is done there? Several commodities may be of the same make and looks but they all have different prices. Even when you pay for say an orange in the market, you dont allow the seller to choose for you the one he wants, no! You are allowed to choose the one that is worth what you have paid.

In 1 Cor 6: 19, the Bible says that we were bought at a “price”. This means that just like cows in a livestock market, all humans have an individual value. If we were all to be auctioned, you would be surprised by how fast some of us would be bought and buffled by how difficult it would be for some of us to get a buyer.

My two challenges to each one of us are:
1. What is your market value and how would others respond to it? How valuable or useful are you to yourself, your family, your company, your friends, your church and to the society as a whole?
2. What are you doing to increase and sustain your market value? A good car is known by its “resale price” If you cannot retain your market value for a long time, you risk becoming irrelevant and redundant. what is your resale price if you were to be sold tommorrow?

May God help us to give a thought to the above challenge. God bless you.
