Day 21: Worth Series - #4 Valued

-

And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Matthew 10:30-31 NIV

    How sweet it is to be loved by the One who holds the universe! We don’t have to be afraid anymore about what tomorrow will bring because we know that God is a God of certainty. You are loved. You are valued. God sees you. He longs for you.

    These verses show that we are valued by God even on the tiniest detail we don’t value about ourselves. Do you spend time counting the number of your hair? I bet not, because it’ll be tiring. But God knows it! He knows everything about you. We all know that God created all the living beings here on earth – including the birds. Even the wild birds that no one has been taking care of can live all throughout their lifespans because God provides them food to eat and water to drink. What more about us humans – the highest form of living beings in this world – that God loves and values? God says that we must not be afraid because we are worth more than many sparrows.

    We may not understand our situation right now, but one thing is for sure; God listens to our prayers. Whether it’s about pain, joy, sorrow, success or anything that worries us, God will put everything into place. Sometimes, God’s answers are disguised in the hard times. We face hard times, and God makes a beautiful fruit of story out of it. Also, we must worry no more because our God is a Provider. He provides everything we need, and He hears our prayers.

    Spend a few minutes of this day letting go of every worry inside you. You are not meant to carry that. God offers more. God has a better plan for you, trust Him.

“Daughter, I hear you. I value you. You are not alone. You don’t have to worry about anything because I have everything. You just have to trust Me and let go of the load that you have been carrying for a long time now. Your value is worth more than many sparrows. Just hold my hand and let’s face this together. I offer more of what you can imagine. You know that I love you daughter, and that will never change.”

    Have a blessed day!

Day 12: Self-reflection

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” Isaiah 55:8-9 NIV      Personally, this verse is my devotion for today. I will let the passage I read to talk to you today because I am also reflecting and learning about it. We need others’ reflection, too. We need it because we know that different people have different perspectives about a certain verse. We have different inputs, and I want to share the one I saw today. It is from the YouVersion bible plan provided by Loop. I am blessed by this and I hope this will bless you too. Do You Wonder About the Plan?      I know you want to see what’s ahead. I know it is difficult to not know, to not know what is around the corner. I know you wonder if I have a plan.      My daughter, how could I not have a plan for this world? How could I not have a plan for you? Do you wonder

Day 23 - God's Plans

But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.  Psalms 33:11 NIV      We've learned that God knows the unknown and He knows what is best for us ( see Day 4 Blog ). What we're going to learn today is that HOW His plans work and how long do His promises valid?      Based on our verse above, God's promises are FOREVER; meaning NO EXPIRATIONS! How awesome is that! God is always waiting for us to come to Him so that His plans in our lives will be fulfilled. It is possible that we're not waiting for our destiny, but our destiny (His perfect plan) waits for us. God gave us free will to do what we want to do and how we deal with situations; because we're humans, and not robots. God didn't create us to enslave us, but to shower us with His grace. It is also in our own willingness that we will surrender to His authority and let Him be the Author of our lives.      So, back to His plans. God won't let you live without

Day 4: He Knows the Unknown

"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." Jeremiah 29:11 NIV     Do you have a dream? Whether to excel in studies, to have a good relationship or waiting for a promotion, I bet we all have at least one in mind right now. I have a good news for you: Did you know that God has the best and biggest plan for us?     There are three principles that we must follow in order to achieve our God-given dream. But let us first take this example and apply them to all the principles. Y our parents promised to buy you a car after you graduate. But you're still in grade school. Everything Takes Time.                    It's exciting but kinda frustrating right? But with our without promise, you strove hard and did your best in school to graduate with flying colors. At last! You finally have your own car. The years of waiting were all so worth it. But do you have a question in mi
