Choose God

Have you ever felt like you were just losing it because of what you’ve lost? Every now and then, we lose something or someone, and if we’re not careful we can “lose it”–psychologically, physically, or spiritually.

For example, when you lose your job, or a loved one. When a relationship you’ve invested your heart and your hope in, your life and your love in, is suddenly snatched away, that’s cause to make you want to quit on love. All of us have lost something or someone! And when we lose that thing or that someone, the loss seems much larger, much more encompassing than it is. We sometimes feel we have lost it all.

Friends let me tell you, this is when God has the opportunity to show Himself strong in you, and through you. This is not the time to choose the things this world has to offer. On the contrary, this is the time to go to God, to His Word and through prayer. God tells us clearly in Matthew 6:33,”But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” If you do this you will lose nothing and gain more than you could possibly imagine!

Seek first after God and He will see to it that you are taken care of. You will come to the realization that what you’ve lost can be replaced, but what you find you will no longer be able to live without. Stop holding on to the things of this world, put those things behind you and move forward to a new life, a better life. No man ever made an impact for Christ by joining in on what the rest of the world was doing. Only by being separated from the world and living for Christ can one ever truly make an impact on others. Strive each day to walk with an eternal outlook.

Be the Blessing
