The Lord is responsible for you being here...
and you are responsible to him while you are here.
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord; and he delighteth in his way.” Psalms 37:23
How many times have you said as a child or have you heard as a parent, “I didn’t ask to be born.”
That is a true statement.
None of us asked to be born, but we were. We were born and because we were born, we are responsible. We have responsibilities to others and to the One who ordained that we were born. Every parent recognizes or should recognize the demands made on the parent by the child are because the child is looking for direction. What are my boundaries? How far can I go? They are on an endless course of exploration in touching, tasting, feeling and asking about everything. Every day is a new day filled with things they know nothing about.
There should always be positive reinforcement directed toward the child and one another. All of the promises of God directed toward His children are positive.
“For all the promises of God in him are yea, and in him Amen, unto the glory of God by us.” II Corinthians 1:2
Our Creator ordained that you should be here! You are important to Him. He made only one of you and while you may be similar to others, you are uniquely different. Only you get to fill up the space you are in.
It is Gods desire to know you personally and to interact with you in daily experience.
“I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvelous are thy works: and that my soul knoweth right well. My substance (fetus) was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest part of the earth. (The womb) Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuances (nine month gestation period) were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them.” Psalm 139:14-16
“And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? For ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.”
II Corinthians 6:16
We are His children and He has oversight of our lives. As His children we are to trust Him and live out our lives in cooperation with Him.
As His child, everyday should be a day of exploration and growth as we seek the boundaries of an ever increasing relationship with our Father. Depend on Him today!
He is responsible for us being here and we are responsible to Him while we are here.
