Sometimes the way people view us, the way God views us, and the way we view ourselves gets muddled. We get them mixed up. Most of us, myself for sure, struggle to see ourselves the way that God sees us. God sees us through the eyes of love. He sees the full picture. Even though he is aware of our faults, he is also aware of our strengths. He knows us better than we know ourselves.
God, the Creator of the universe, the Almighty, the One and Only True God, has a message for you today. He says, “ You are my child. I know what you need. I know your comings and goings. I will take care of you. I will take care of it. I am your provider, no one else and nothing else is. I am Your Provider. I am going ahead of you to pave the way. I am guiding your every step. I am right behind you to catch you if you fall. I am by your side to hold your hand through this journey. In journey comes growth. I really do care more about your character than your comfort. Let go! Let it all go. Let the money go. Let the kids go. Let your spouse go. Let the schooling go. Let it all go.”
“Give me your all. I want 100% of you because even what you see as faults I see as a way for me to gain glory. Watch as I do this new thing in you through you. Be my vessel. Carry me and my word with you everywhere you go, in all situations, and in all places. Remember today that you are my beloved child. I love you so much.”
God loves you. Even when God speaks through me, as he did in what I wrote above, I like to back it with scripture. Below you will find some scriptures that support the message from God. God loves you and you aren’t reading this by accident. Let him speak to your heart today and let go of what you have been holding so tight to.
