The four pillars of A Blessed Life
The four pillars of A Blessed Life begin with knowing that God made you for a purpose, fulfilment and achievement. My people who survived the sword found grace as they wandered in the wilderness; When Israel went in search of rest, I appeared to them from far away and said: “I have loved you with an everlasting love— out of faithfulness I have drawn you close. (Jeremiah 31:3 Voice). Be Intentional about reminding yourself who you are in Christ by renewing your mind daily in the word of God.
1.God Loves Me.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16). God has many ways in which He loves us, in spite of our neglects, and our failures, and our frustrations in life. He loves us. He loves us with an unparalleled love.
“There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.” — John Green
2.He created me for a Purpose
Since the one God is three persons—the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—God did not need to create us. Still, God had a purpose when he created you and me and took good pleasure in his creation. Then God saw everything that He had made, and indeed it was very good. So, the evening and the morning were the sixth day. (Gen. 1:31NKJ). God created you to know him.
And still, I rise.” — Maya Angelou
3. gOD created YOU for fulfilment
Fulfillment You can find fulfillment by living into who God created you to be. In short, you find fulfillment when you discover and carry out your calling. This fulfillment finds expression in many ways – in serving your community, church, and family. In these places, you can make contributions that have eternal significance. And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. (Romans 8:28).
There is no normal life that is free of pain. It’s the very wrestling with our problems that can be the impetus for our growth.” — Fred Rogers
4. God Beleives In Me
God Believes in You Because He Knows You Thoroughly. What does this mean to us? It means that God knows your name. He knows where you live. He knows where you work. He knows everything about you there is to be known. He knows what really makes you tick. Psalm 139:2 says “thou understandest my thought afar off.” Long before we can ever conceive a thought in our mind, God knows what we’re going to think about on a given day and time in history. Surely there is a great advantage of having a God like that watching over us, caring for us, and providing for us. O Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways (Psalm 139:1-3). God Believes in You Because He Loves You Perfectly
“I think it’s really important to take the stigma away from mental health… My brain and my heart are really important to me. I don’t know why I wouldn’t seek help to have those things be as healthy as my teeth.” —
