He’s the first person to ever care about you, and He cares about you more deeply than anyone else ever could.
He’s been waiting for you to acknowledge Him, to turn to Him and to
thank Him — for He has been faithfully caring for you throughout your
whole life; He alone has sustained you.
Though other people and forces have sought to exploit you, to
undermine you and to steal from you because of greed and a lust for
power, God has protected you so that you could hear this message about
His goodness and great love – so that you can forever escape the
weakness, ignorance and selfishness of this world by running into His
arms.
He wants to lift you up; up and out of the “lowest common
denominator” situation that you may be finding yourself in. Though
everyone around you may be devoid of hope, you do not have to “settle”!
God’s desire for you is
abundant life – like a parent’s sincere desire for their child.
… Have you ever seen “that look” in your parent’s eyes, when you know
that they just want you to be happy, to be successful, to have peace
and security in your life?
Imagine this same kind of loving goodwill being directed to you from
God – but much more powerfully, and with none of the “baggage” or fears
that your biological parents are likely to carry with them.
Now is the perfect time turn to Him, talk to Him, acknowledge Him;
spend some time focusing on God. If you have a Bible, read it. If not,
you can get the
free YouVersion bible app for your device here.
Pray and ask God to help you read it, and to lead you to where in the
bible He wants you to read – God uses the bible as one means of
communicating with us – He can talk through the bible in very specific
ways to meet our immediate needs; if the first one or two times you try
this nothing special seems to be coming, don’t be discouraged, just try
again. It could be that you just need to press into God and ask again.
How do I know that God loves us? He proved it to me by pulling my
life “out of the pit” as it were. I called out to Him and He answered;
He plucked me out of the situation I had found myself in after I called
out to Him in prayer, and set my life on a new unshakable path,
surrounded me with God-loving people, gave me joy, hope, peace and inner
strength. He gave me a family, a job, and even a personal relationship
with Himself. He gives me heavenly dreams and visions, special gifts,
and unending encouragement.
