“You are my beloved, with whom I am well PLEASED”
How great is it for God Almighty Father, the Creator of all things living and nonliving, to be PLEASED with us.
The Father’s love for us ‘Mankind’ is so great and humbling. So much so that from the beginning He created us in His own image and likeness, giving us His Holy Spirit.
Yet while we were in the wrong, His love for us remained steadfast.
One is mindful to say that for want of nothing else, our utmost desire all our lives ought to be to LOVE and PLEASE Almighty God our Father, just for who He is; Loving and All Knowing.
I am sure you have paused sometimes in this journey of life to ask yourself, what pleasing God means and how you can please God your creator.
Live in Holiness and love; the will of God for us is to become Holy as He our Father is Holy.
( 1 Thessalonians 4:3-5).
He wants us to refrain from wrong doing and do what’s right for ourselves, honouring His divine image in our human body, as well as do what is right to others, who also have His divine image in them.
God our Father has called us to live not in Immorality, but in Holiness. And those who don’t, disobey God Himself and not human authority.
You and I know what we do in public and especially, in private. The harsh reality of life is that we are all so naked before our Creator, who is all knowing and sees everything. For God looks at our Heart, on the intention of an act rather than just our deeds/action or inaction.
So, knowing how naked and bare we are before Him, the Creator; let us appraise ourselves regularly; and where we have done wrong, displeasing Him, we ought to quickly make amends and renew our friendship with our God on a new slate. Relying on His abundant grace and mercies to focus on doing what is right.
God in turn will say, “with you I am well PLEASED”. Then our purpose in life will be fulfilled.
FOCUS ON PLEASING GOD, NOT MAN.
