Why Was I Created?

If you find yourself asking the question above, please read on...

"Where something is made matters to us. Look at the tag on most any product and you'll likely see a line like these imprinted on it: MADE IN CHINA, MADE IN MEXICO, MADE IN AMERICA
And if you could see the line imprinted on your heart, it would read, MADE IN HEAVEN. The word made usually conjures up visions of factories and impersonal production lines, but the way heaven creates is entirely different. Every part of your being was carefully and intricately crafted by God. Of course, that creation was carried out physically in your mother's womb, but the idea of you started in the heart of heaven itself and He declared it was good....God longs for His children to embrace the worth and value He's given them and then use it to bless others.
When we know who we are and whose we are, we're free to love, live with joy, and make a difference in the world".-Holley Gerth

I was created to give you praise in times when I don’t “feel” like it. I was created to worship you in the seasons when I don’t see tangible results. I was created to honor you in times when I want to give up, when I’ve had enough and when I just don’t understand. But you are with me. Oh Lord, you are an awesome God! You are the great I AM.  Lord, you are forever on the throne and you are FAITHFUL. Therefore, I will not lose sight. I will not allow the old nature (man) spoken of in Ephesians 4:22-24 dictate to me the excellence of my Holy Lord. “That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; and be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness”. But, rather I will put all my trust and confidence in you. Lord, I will trust you with my life.

I will trust you in times of uncertainty, in weaknesses, in hurting and in pain. I will trust you.

 I rededicate my life to you today. I’m repentant that I have loved others more than you. "He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." Matthew 10:37. Your word says that it is your goodness and mercy that leads us to repentance. Because of your goodness and mercy, I repent for believing in the lie that you were not able to help me. I repent for placing my trust in what I see. I know that as I repent, I am forgiven and your light will shine salvation in my heart. “Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death”.
 Oh Lord, there is no darkness in you, there is only but light, life and truth. May we pursue to praise, worship and glorify your name, not only in song but with our lives. May we continue to obey you Lord. Let all who confess in your name gain an intimate relationship as they seek to know, reverence and honor you more. Forever worship!
