Just Another Brick in the Wall

Jeremiah 31:3
The Lord hath appeared of old unto me, saying,
Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love:
therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee.

John 15:13
Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

In the late 70's and early 80's a song came on the radio called, "Another Brick in the Wall". It was a song that spoke of being another face in the crowd. In the video it has school children with clone/style faces and being nothing but another brick in the wall. But this teaching, along with many other worldly lessons, is dangerous. It causes people to feel that no one cares, or that no one loves them. But this is not true!  

God loves you!  I know you've heard it from every preacher that has run off with a lady in the church. I know you've heard it from every Christian who has said it while stabbing you in the back. But have you ever heard it from someone who loves you?  Someone who took your punishment?  Someone who has never ran off, lied, cheated or stabbed anyone in the back?  

To Jesus, you are NOT another brick in the wall. You are NOT just another face in the crowd. You are valuable!  So valuable that He paid the greatest price ever!  NO ONE, no one has loved you more than Jesus has. 

So all in all, your NOT just another brick in the wall!
