We can learn so much about God and his love for us when we become a parent.
We want soooo much for our children. We don't want them to struggle. We don't want them to be hurt. We want them to have everything they need and everything that they want. We want absolutely nothing but the best for our children.
If we are made in the image of God and we are children of God and God loves us so much that he sent his only son to this earth to die for OUR sins so that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life, then why in the world wouldn't God want us protected and provided for?
One of my favorite bible scriptures is:
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Gods plan is to prosper us and not to harm us and to give us hope and a future. I'm so thankful to God for that!!
Are you a believer? If so, I do also believe that what I just said deserves and Amen! lol (A little church humor for you ;)
I want to put something on your mind real quick...
How many times have you planned to do something really nice for your child and then they go and mess it up by disobeying you or lying to you or disrespecting you or even disrespecting themselves?
It hurts. It not only hurts the chances of our children having the best life EVER, provided by us, their parents who adore them! But it also hurts us because we want nothing but the best for our children and hate that they ruined the chance for something amazing to happen in their lives.
I would think that God is the same way, saying, "Come on now... Just follow the plan so that you can prosper and have a hope and a future. Come on now... Dang!" lol
With that said... I hope that you find peace and joy in knowing that Gods plan for you is a beautiful one.
So be victorious and full of faith in this crooked world. With God all things are possible and the victory is ours.
With Love,
