Hello, and thanks for joining us today on Pastor Rick's Daily Hope.

This is the Bible teaching ministry of Rick Warren, and today we are continuing in a series

called The Miracle of Mercy. Rick will show us how God's mercy can lift your guilt, heal

your wounds, and transform the way you live.

Right now, here's the final part of a message called How Much You Matter to God.

When you are saved, when you move from category A, lost to category B, saved, all of a sudden,

you get your potential back.

That God-given potential that's been being wasted

like the coin that was lost, that can't do any good

while it's lost.

Matthew 11, verse 28, Jesus says this,

come to me all you who are weary and worn out.

That may be you. Come to me all you who are weary and worn out. That may be you.

Come to me all you who are weary and worn out from caring too much.

Learn to trust, there it is again, and rest in me, and you'll recover, circle that word,

you'll recover your life.

Question.

What have you lost that you'd like to recover? What have you lost that you'd like to recover?

Like the woman who lost a coin, you say, well, I've lost my strength.

I'd like to get it back.

I've lost my joy.

I'd like to get it back. I've lost my joy. I'd like to get it back.
