have you noticed that in subway stations and in many public places there are one or two of those penny weighing machines? abd very often someone is standing on one of them! people seem to like to be weighed.
your weight is what you can balance, without using any outside pressure like someone putting his foot on the scales.
the weight of your musckles is designed by how much much you can lift! how much work you can do.
it seems to me that the true weight of a dollar bill should be, how much it can buy.
you have a heart. i dont think it has ever been weighed on one of those penny scales! but i believe god weighs it by the amount of kindness and love it can balance. being big-hearted or light-hearted does not refer to scales.
what is the weight of your voice? you have heard people say," what he says carries a lot of weight." of course the meaning is that he is very influential and people hee and obey his counsel. the words of jesus, indeed his whole life, were like that. jesus' life canonly be weighed byt he love and service that he gives to thew world.
your true weight is measured not only in terms of pounds, ounces, and grams but much more it is measured by service and character and your influence for good.
"let me be weighed in an even balance."
