May Your Voice Be Heard

We scream, we yell, we fight to be heard- but who's listening? 

Often times we feel alone, we pray & speak and speak to God & He's an amazing listener, but what does he have to say, how do I know what his thoughts are? 

That's when I go to my Bible & realize situations others were in & what God did for them & what his opinion was. 

It gives me strength, perseverance & strictly Gods thoughts. It makes me feel like even before I was born, millions of years prior, he knew I'd need him in a certain situation (every situation) and he wrote it in his word to show me the light, to show me His thoughts & sometimes that's what you need. 

So if you don't feel heard, like God hasn't said anything - maybe you're not listening. 

Proverbs 2:1-5 says 

"My son, if you receive my words and treasure up my commandments with you, making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your heart to understanding; yes, if you call out for insight & raise your voice for understanding, if you seek it like silver and search for it as for hidden treasures, then you will understand the fear of The Lord and find the knowledge of God." 

Also, 

John 8:47

" whoever is of God hears the words of God. The reason why you do not hear them is that you are not of God."

I find myself yelling to God at times I feel like He isn't listening, but really it's me who doesn't have open ears of wisdom to hear Him. 

So give your all to God & He will answer you, He will provide & He will ALWAYS love you. 

  And may your voice be heard. 

First Step:

There so many times in life, when we let things slip- we say it isn't worth fighting for and that we're done. 

It's so beyond easy to do that to your faith, and I'm not just speaking words, I'm speaking from experience. 

I miss the days where I would open up my bible and know that God was speaking straight to me, but I also realize that it was me who opened the book, you're the human in this equation and it's your job to take the first step. Who says that step will be 100% right, or that it'll be what will turn your life around? No one, it's just THE FIRST STEP. 

The first step to your forever is what you make of it, and no matter if it's opening up your bible and giving it a 5 minute read, or saying your first prayer in 6 months; God has an ultimate plan for your life, and wants you to be in eternity with Him. 

Letting things slip is so easy, and so is settling for second best.

Although what you have may seem worth it, is it going to give you everlasting life?

Some things in life, as the famous quote goes; are lessons & the others are meant to be there forever. 

Whether that be a person, or an experience or a loss, or what ever it may be in your life that is teaching you something & won't be there forever, or is a lesson you're going to be learning forever (if that makes sense) than take it with maturity and understanding. Because as I said something's are meant to be there & others are lessons learned along the way.

Because it isn't worth fighting for if you can't put God above it.
