Day 6- God is my best friend.

alright, so who is your best friend? that's a pretty easy question. now dig a little deeper.

why are is that person(s) your best friend?

is it because you talk to them every day? do they make you laugh till you cry? do they share their deepest secrets with you? do you share your hearts desires with them? do you spend a good amount of time with them? do you enjoy spending time with them? do you go to them for comfort? for support or encouragement or advice? do you love them? do they love you?

could you say all of these things about God?

Do you talk to Him everyday? does He make you laugh? does he share secrets with you, and do you tell him whats on your heart? do you spend a good amount of time with Him? do you enjoy that time you have together? do you go to Him for comfort? support? advice? encouragement? do you love Him? and i know He loves you.

God is my best friend, He has such a huge place in my heart that only something God sized can fill it. God is faithful and loyal to me, he brings me joy peace and strength. He takes away my worries and guides me closer and closer to him.

if God isn't your best friend, don't you want him to be? :)

Day 5- You are the only one Worthy.

God literally does countless things for me, and you too; often we over look them. He is always consistent, whether you think differently or not, God IS consent; consistently in love with you. He is holy; He makes you holy when your in His presence. i believe that God is the ONLY one who is WORTHY of a devotion; He deserves our devotion. He is the only one that deserves my whole heart, cracked and pieced together by his love, it is rightfully His. God has my undivided attention. He is worthy.

Day 4- You have the Ultimate Planner

God, sometimes i find myself looking at my planner and it is completely filled with things i have got to do and places to be. if my planner had feelings, it would be terrified of yours. Proverbs 3:5-6 says to trust in the Lord with all your heart, lean not on your own understanding. acknowledge Him in all things and He will set your paths straight. this lets me know that you have plans for me, even if it isn't directly written. we all simply need to trust God with every aspect in our lives. God knows the plan, and He will tell us what to do when the time is right, and everyone knows no ones planning is better than Gods ;) it is amazing and so comforting and it allows me to rejoice just thinking about this. i know i personally have no idea where to begin, but God does. Thank you Jesus!!!

alright so i haven't had a lot of free time lately, but i am going to commit to blogging on here during my devotions more often.


day 3- You know our sorrows and our pains

God, you see our pains, everything that we go through that hurts, you see it. God you let us go through those hard times in our lives and we need to see those times in our lives as opportunities to grow in you, chances to learn about you, and gifts of love. God you see them and you consider them, taking them to hand. and its more than that, you don't just see them, you *feel* them! You know what it is like to be in pain, you have been through more pain than i ever will endure. God not only did Jesus have to go through crap from the judgment of others, not to mention the physical pain of being stone and crucified, but you had to watch that happen to your son! God i feel like i hurt you and cause you pain because i let other things take the place in my heart that is rightfully yours. sometimes i cause you pain because i don't give you my full attention.
God thank you so much for knowing my pain. thank you for understanding it. thank you for using it for something good. something like that is what i call a God thing. :)

The Provider

Day 2- You are the provider- geneisis 22- God i know you as the provider because you have taken care of so many things. you provide me with an endless love that is so deep, so high, so far, and so wide as the cross. God you have provided me the money to reach my first deadline for my mission trip to papua new guinea. thank you God. you provided Abrahahm a ram to sacrifice because of his faith in you. God you told me that you would provided me the money for PNG and tuition at LU. i just need to have faith that you know best, your timing is right, and i need to trust you as abraham did. thank you.

King of Comfort

ohkay, so for the past 11 days i have been writing in my journal.... on each day i have written a characteristic of God... and i have decided to post those traits on here, and every day for the next 30 days i will keep posting traits of God on here. this is to help me grow closer to Him and learn more about who He is.


Day 1- King of Comfort- God has comforted me in so many ways about so many different things. God has comforted my heart when it felt empty due to the loss of my mother. God comforted me that night... i was sitting on my bed crying out to him, and his presence was so comforting. i wish i could describe it. God has comforted me with everything that has happened with a bad relationship. God comforted me through a bad break up and when my heart was broken. he has comforted me through my fears. God chased after me and he hasn't let go. God i know you best, as the King of Comfort.
