“For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him?
Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.”
1Corinthians 2:11
Have you ever wondered what your future is going to be? Do you ever want to know what you are supposed to do while you are on this planet called Earth? Well, what if I tell you all your answers are right under your nose? That’s right. It is a breath away.
“If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above,
where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind
on things above, not on things on the earth.”
Colossians 3:1-2
To live the life God intended for you to live, you must learn to set your affection at another level. A level that I would call the “Heavenly Level.” The Word of God said to seek after those things which are above. But a lot of God’s children have been seeking those things that are on the earth. They are after money, possessions, wealth, prestige, power, etc., on an earthly level instead of on the heavenly level. These earthly things may satisfy them momentarily, but they will never give them eternal gratification. So, does that mean that God doesn’t want me to have a bank account and all other things that pertain to this life?
My Declaration of Faith:
Some days, I used to wonder if God’s love for me changed depending on how I performed or whether I got it right or messed it all up. But the truth is, God’s love isn’t moody or conditional. He doesn’t love me more on my good days or less on my bad ones. His love is steady, unshakable, and unconditional.
My Declaration of Faith:
There are so many things pulling at my attention, such as responsibilities, goals, opinions, and noise. But deep in my heart, there’s a desire that surpasses them all: I want to know God. Not just know about Him, but truly know Him, intimately, personally, and deeply.
My Declaration of Faith:
Today, I remind my soul: my Father’s heart is full of love toward me, always. His grace isn’t based on how well I perform or how “pure” my intentions are. Just like the prodigal son, I’ve had moments when I came back to God not out of love, but because I was empty, desperate, and hungry. And still, He ran toward me.
