He created you and me and everything in this world, so why not thank Him for everything in your life? I know that we all have good days and bad ones, and sometimes the bad ones may outweigh the good ones, but God provides His promise for us all.
God talked to Adam, Noah, and Abram. God also talked to every faithful king in Israel and every prophet that He sent to Israel. If we acknowledge that He talked to all of these people, then we can infer that God likes to talk to His people, whether they are Israelites or Gentiles.
So, why does the church only talk to God when we pray for others? Why can’t we talk/pray to God about everything that we need to talk to Him about? I’m not speaking of prayer for things that we want, but prayer about being thankful for our blessings. I’m not saying that prayer for others is a bad thing, but do you pray to God about your day? He knows what is going on in your day, but like a parent asking their child, “How was school today?”, God wants to talk to you about you!
God loves each of us, whether we love Him or not. He cares about you and me. He may not like your lifestyle if you live a sinful life, but He loves you. When you wake up, thank Him for a night’s sleep and for waking you up again. When you have a good day, thank Him for it. If you have a bad day, pray about it, and He will help you with that problem.
Read the Bible and ask Him to help you understand His Word. God speaks to each of us through His Word, and you can know what He is saying IF you read His Word. We are living in the beginning of the end times, so I encourage you to seek His knowledge and wisdom by reading His Word, and come to know His will for your life.
I came across a profound quote that resonates deeply with me, and I believe it may also have a profound impact on your life. It doesn’t fall in the same category as the rest of my posts, but I hope you will read it with an open mind.
The quote comes from a poet, Robert Frost, and here is the quote: “In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: It goes on.”
It is a profound quote, one that we can all relate to. Regardless of your station in life. Whether you are just starting out or you have been living life for many years, it goes on. It doesn’t matter what you have experienced, good or bad; life goes on. It is repetitive, I know, but you have experienced it, just as I have.
My experience has also brought me to the point of knowing that God is still in control of everything. Sometimes, it may not look like anyone is in control, but everything is proceeding according to His plans for this time. I pray that anyone who reads this will seek to know Him by reading His Word and understanding that He loves us very deeply. Our sinful lives get in the way of our satisfaction with Him, and that is where we should be careful to allow Him to change us to be more like His Son, Jesus.
