The great thing about believing in God is that God showed me how to believe in me. Everything I learn from God is good. God teaches me how to live a healthy lifestyle and how to have healthy relationships around me. He teaches me how to live. There is a standard there that protects me and is suppose to protect the world if the world wants to understand God. God puts me in a place so that I can be a better person if I want to be. I have strength since there is no fear when I know that I am not alone. My Creator created me. I am important, and I have purpose. I realize that I need God.
God doesn’t want to be taken for granted. It is easy to take what He teaches and say that I am who I am not because of God, but because I have a good upbringing or something like that. It don’t believe it is good to say you are a good person and not understand why. We need to recognize God and be thankful. We have to remember who made us and who created us to know how we are suppose to be. God gives life meaning. Having faith in God reveals truth and what is truth to yourself. There is a whole world out there that means something, and affects us all since we are all interconnected.
No matter where I might be in life, it doesn’t matter. I just know God wants me to have my eyes fixed on Him and to continue to seek Him out in my life. He truly loves me.
I hear Him say, “I am yours and you are mine.”
