You Are Seen!

““I knew you before I formed you in your mother’s womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my prophet to the nations.”” Jeremiah‬ ‭1:5‬ ‭

Nothing in life goes unnoticed by God. At some point in life we each feel like we aren't noticed by others, maybe it's we don't fit in at school, work or a church group. We think that others look over us and cannot see us. There is one person that will always see us though, God. The Bible says that He knew us before He formed us in our mother's womb, He sees every aspect of us and yet He loves us anyways. Feeling rejected by others tends to hurt, as it would to anyone. Feeling left out also hurts as it makes us look at ourselves less than others. The truth is others will hurt us at times, we will be left out, and sometimes we will even feel less than others, but there is another side to each of these. We sometimes hurt others, sometimes we don't fit in like we want because we aren't meant to be apart of that group, and when we feel less than someone we have to remember that material things amount to nothing and God has no favorites. We are equal to the next person. Today, if you're feeling down and out, left out, hurt by someone or less than others know that God loves, sees, hears and welcomes you. You will never be left out or hurt by God. We are all created alike and no better than the next person and sometimes we just need to remember that also means no one is better than us. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “We know, dear brothers and sisters, that God loves you and has chosen you to be his own people.” 1 Thessalonians‬ ‭1:4‬ ‭ “This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.” ‭‭1 John‬ ‭4:10‬ ‭ “And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.” Romans‬ ‭8:28‬ “Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you.” 1 John‬ ‭2:15‬ ‭

Happiness That Will Never Fulfill.

“Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭37:4‬ ‭ Happiness is something we are all searching for in life, it's something that we each want to feel. I have come to realize if I want to feel happiness it begins with finding God. I will never be happy in this world when I don't have God in my life. Although people think they might be happy on earth now, there will come a time for eternity and if their lives are full of sin then happiness will never last. Believing that this world can satisfy your soul is only lying to yourselves. You have to find a true meaningful relationship with God and work on it everyday, you aren't called to be perfect but you have to make an effort. God knows your heart, and if you're trying He sees that. Today, spend time truly seeking God for the happiness you're searching for. This earth cannot fill your soul. Here are some verses to reflect on today. “A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken sp...

Wait Patiently!

“Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord.” Psalms‬ ‭27:14‬ ‭ If God is making you wait, then wait patiently. Nothing in the waiting is a waste. I remember a time in my life where I was praying for something, I waited years and seem to receive no answer. I waited and waited. Somedays I was impatient and cried all day, other days I waited with patience of steel and praised God for what I knew I would someday receive. Sometimes the waiting is easy, other times it is an uphill battle. Whenever we are waiting we will go through different seasons, but we can count on the fact that God is at work for us. The waiting is important and a lesson is somewhere in the midst. Today, whatever it is God is having you wait for know that the season of waiting is often a time you look back on as a blessing. Even if it doesn't feel like a blessing now someday you will see how close the waiting brought you to God. When we are waiting we often spend more tim...

Don't Forget God!

“Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.” Philippians‬ ‭4:6‬ ‭ Don't forget God when you receive what you are praying for. God knows the things that we want the most, and often times He does give us what we want. When God does give us the things we want we have to stop and give thanks. It's like this, if you give someone a gift that you know they have really been wanting, something they will absolutely love, and they don't even say thank you it would hurt your feelings. It would make you feel like they don't appreciate you. If someone asked how they got the gift and they said they got it for themselves it would make you hurt also. When God gives us what we are praying for we need to shout from the rooftops that God done it for us, that He made a way. We need to thank God, telling everyone about it. We should be excited to tell others about God and all the wonderful things He does for us. Toda...
