Devotion

Yes, I confess. I am very selfish. I might not ever meet you in person, but you are my friend. I love you. I enjoy your company. I want you to have nice things. I want to see you succeed. I want to see you shine. It makes me happy to see you happy. I very selfishly want to be happy in your happiness.

My selfishness knows no boundaries. I don’t just want you to be happy today. I want you to be happy always and forever. It would make me very sad if I find out, when I get to heaven, you didn’t make it. My heart would break.

My wish for you is to make Jesus the center of your heart, as He is mine. By turning your heart over to Jesus Christ, you free yourself. Once you belong to Jesus, you are no longer a child of this world. You are free from worrying. Yes, we all still have worries, but that is by choice or habit. Jesus promised to take care of you always. However, we are not perfect. Things don’t go as we expected, so we allow doubt, fear, and worry to enter our thoughts. That’s okay. Just pray for strength and deliverance, praising God for being there with you during your times of trial.

Keep praying for deliverance and giving praise to God until your trial is over. I don’t mean stop praying. Never stop praying. Never stop praising God. He alone is worthy of prayer and praise!
