God Knows

Matthew 6:6 “But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you”,

Have you ever felt unappreciated? Have you ever felt unnoticed?

Well, I have! I sometimes feel overlooked and underappreciated at work, at home, and in ministry, and at church. Sometimes I wonder if it’s because I am not married, a single parent, don’t drive a certain car, or because I don’t live in a certain neighborhood.  

 As I was reading a devotion, I came to this particular scripture and I realized GOD KNOWS. It was there I was convicted! God whispered, “I know and that’s all that matters.” He said, “Many people spend their lives buying things they cannot afford trying to seek love and approval from man. Why seek man’s approval for an earthly life when I can give you ETERNAL LIFE?”  That one statement made me realize that I was not living for man, but for God! 
We do not have to have fancy houses, cars, or a list of accolades behind our name for God to love us. He loves us unconditionally!  He will reward us with more than what we can ever imagine!

Heavenly Father,
All I need is You!   You are the greatest Rewarder!
In Jesus Name,
Amen.
