You’re important to God

This verse has applied to my life so many times. When we go through ‘troubled’ waters, God is with us. He is an ever-present help in our time of need. God cannot separate himself from us. It is us who separate ourselves, don’t listen, write him off, and then we turn around and say, where’s God? Why isn’t he doing ‘this’ or ‘that’ in my life? You have to understand, most of the things you desire mean nothing in the greater scheme of life. Yes. They mean nothing. What we deem essential: success, love, travel, or money, for example, don’t mean much. Don’t get me wrong, he wants us to have the desires of our heart and blesses us at times. But what matters most is his heart for us and vice versa. Your quest for ‘happiness’ or whatever that is by western definition, is not as crucial to our Heavenly Father as you think it is. What’s important is that you have a heart for him.❤️💖💚💝💙💜💛

I'm a teacher, writer, and speaker. I got into publishing when I joined a Christian writers' group online where I met a few select authors who mentored me. My life changed. Through classes, webinars, and friendly emails, I've been encouraged to write. I started my blog to cope with my spinal injury in hopes of helping people. View all posts by Zina Hermez
