You are God's somebody
Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee--Hebrews 13:5
There has been a deep famine the land over the past couple of years. Because of the shaking that has taken place, many feel they are faceless, lost, and that their lives are spinning out of control.
If our foundation is weak, nothing built on it will withstand the fires, floods nor storms that come our way. If we become led by our emotions, we can become overwhelmed and feel as if the dirt is being thrown over us. WE have to cast ALL of our cares on Jesus, the one who can, and will perfect all things concerning us.
No one or no thing can make us feel worthless without our permission. In II Corinthians 10:5, we are told to cast down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God and bring it into the captivity of Jesus Christ. We need to know what God says, so we can know the right move to make.
As we read His word, we see how God restores those who trust Him. It may normally take X amount of time to get a certain thing accomplished, but God can accelerate/quicken blessings into the lives of His children. When we are in His will, and pray believing that we receive what we ask, without doubting -- we open the door for Him to do miracles in our lives. All is well, you do matter, your life is not over. You are somebody in Christ. Trust HIm.
God bless,
Pamyla
