Values
Though there are probably hundreds of thousands of different values that hundreds of thousands of different people cherish, there are three main values that I cherish and stand upon. Those three main values include passion, dedication, and compassion. I get these values, and many others, from several different places that my life evolves around. Some of these places include my family, my childhood, my high school experience, my college experience, church and my faith, and many others. Throughout this essay, I will describe and define each of these values, telling what they mean to me, personally, and where I believe I inherited them. The first value I chose is Passion. Webster defines the word Passion as, “a strong liking for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept.” This, too, is probably most of the world’s definition of the word, as well. However, to me, personally, I feel that from my own experiences, being passionate about something is not be able to sleep the night before your next baseball game because you love it so much, wanting to rush to the field as quickly as possible because of the aroma of the ballpark in your nose, or not ever wanting to leave practi
My third, final, and most important value that I cherish is compassion. Yes, I love the game of baseball with all my heart and soul and yes, it is towards the top of my list of most important things in my life. However, in the end, none of it matters. What does matter is something far more important to me that any game. The most important thing in my life and the thing I value most is my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Therefore, I try to reflect what I do in my life from what Jesus did in his. And the most important thing Jesus did for me in my life was that he had compassion on me. He took my sin and shame and bore it upon himself that I would be made totally clean and sinless in God’s eyes. John 3:16 says that, “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever beliefs in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” Though I am aware this is meaningless and pointless to many, this is what I base my entire life around. I believe it is the only absolute truth in our world today. I believe the Bible is God’s holy, inerrant, and perfect spoken word from cover to cover. Where did I learn these values? I inherited them, I’m sure from my family and its conservative beliefs. However, I feel that I value these things not because of them, but because of the love of Christ. Jesus showed compassio
