I’m God’s Treasured Possession

Scripture Exodus 19: [5] Now if you obey me fully and keep my covenant, then out of all nations you will be my treasured possession. Although the whole earth is mine,

Observation: I want to be God’s treasured possession. So many people want to be their own person without answering to anyone. I spent most of my life that way and ended up in deep depression. I belong to God and there is nothing greater than being a child of God. God loves me and has set up rules, like any loving father to protect me and bring joy to my life. These are not restrictions, but commands of a loving Father. If you truly love someone you want to please and obey them and we are to love our God with all of our heart, mind and soul.

Application: I do love God but during the course of the day my mind wanders to so many different things I forget about Him. I need to stay focused on God and what He wants for me. He wants only the best for me and He wants me saved and loved. I need to be aware of His desires for my life and stay in His will all of the time.

Prayer: My Father I do love you and forgive me for the way I drift away constantly. Keep me close to you speak into my heart and guide me on this journey you have put me on. Help me be obedient to you for you treat me as a treasured possession, help me be worthy.
