Fear not therefore: ye are of more value than many sparrows.<\/p>\n<p><b>Psalms 56:8 <\/b>&#8211; Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?<b><\/b><\/p>\n<h2>THOUGHT FOR THE DAY<\/h2>\n<p>I have worked and lived in environments in the past where I dealt with people that had little or no concern for me or my life. At first people possessed compassion but over time motives reveal the true colors of love\u2019s lack. Even when it comes to our own families you will find that people may let you down at some point. It is a hard life lesson to learn (especially when you need it to count) but when realized can be of the most benefit. Why you ask? Sure, it is good to have others that you <strong>love<\/strong> in your life help you, but depending on people in this world for your emotional needs and friendship may leave you feeling helpless.<\/p>\n<p>When everyone else has stopped listening and begin to unknowingly neglect you there may be a moment where you feel like your life goes unnoticed. Do not be deceived by this! <em>God<\/em> understands! <em>God<\/em> is an all-seeing, all-knowing <em>God<\/em>! He will never leave you, nor forsake you! My interpretation of this is that in my hardest situations that <em>God<\/em> is the same regardless of the love from people. He is the only constant for humankind. We should always make full use of this certainty and lean on <em>God<\/em> instead of personal relationships. Do not get me wrong; for it is good to have people, but this is how God\u2019s intimate fellowship with the Holy Spirit is enjoyed. <em>God<\/em> is compassionate to all of your needs and wants to hear the cries and prayers of us all! So do not be afraid to call out today!<\/p>\n<h2>PUT INTO PRACTICE<\/h2>\n<p>It is always a good thing to improve our positive faithful thinking before God. One way to begin to work this in full-time is to append words of faith to every negative thought that comes around to attack you. For example, \u201cI know I do not feel the greatest right now BUT I know God will bring me through\u201d. You would be surprised of the impact that this will have as you see some trials come to victory. You may just begin to believe what you say!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>THE WORD Luke 12:7 &#8211; But even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.
