The past week, I was at CYIA Training School. And it provided a time to spend alone with God, and to meet some great Christian friends. Over the past year, instead of focusing on my relationship with God and looking to Him to fill my void, I went to my guy friends. And instead of focusing on the fact that I knew God loved me, I put on more and more makeup. And basically changed who I was in order to get approval from others.
Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God. who loved me and gave himself for me.
This verse shows that Christ died for me! And for you!! Jesus gave his life for you and for me. One of my favorite verse says..
Zephaniah 3:17 The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.
However, I know from personal experience, that hearing that God loves you is different than feeling you are loved. First of all, spend time in God's word and really seek him. And then talk to someone about it. I know, after I told one of my dear friends what was going on I felt immediately better!!
You are loved! And you are worth something.
After this week I have made several purposes:
1. To daily read the bible.
2. To spend time daily in prayer
3. To focus on Christ first, in all things.
4. To live for his purposes.
