A Life to Please God.

Lately,
I have been experiencing my fair share of the up and down eras.
Although, these up and down moments have not hindered my faith, but rather have stirred up this curiosity and yearn for so much more in what I have now and will in time.
How to explain...
Have you ever felt that there was a certain someone, career path, or something so much more just waiting for you and you're all the more curious as to whom that person or what it could be?
Have you ever pondered what God's purpose for you so immensely that it causes you to ask God all the more to reveal to you His majesty and will?
To reveal to you that one person who will be with you until the world is no more?

These thoughts have arisen in my mind quite more than exactly wanted...

As in, I want to be content in my life where I am at so that I can live it all out loud all the more to please God and bring Him glory.

I don't want to be in a career path out of selfish ambition, but to bring Him glory and to use my hands on/ life experiences/talents in that career path or the life alone that I live for Him. If I weren't to do so, what would be the point in that?
Would there be an exact purpose?
I am praying to just lead a life for Him.

Relationships:
They're not about just the meaning of love, but what the action of love is. They're about a friendship that is cherished between the two people equally to where they've decided to be dedicated in a 'more serious friendship' that is called a relationship because of the love that dwells in their hearts for one another.
Relationships are to be about care, deep respect/trust, compassion, altruism, and faith in one another, God, and be a great example of what they stand for in this world.
From a Christian stand point,
I do believe a relationship between two people should be of Christ's love, putting on the Armor of God when living in this world so that they may influence others to follow in that example (following in the example of how Christ lived and loved His people).
To value what they have in one another.
The trust and respect between the man and woman is so intricate and divine, it cannot be hindered because the love is abounding through their veins so vast that it has shown such an uniqueness and greatness that should never be broken because the two people can do so much for one another to build each other up, to live for God and their significant other as practicing the love of Christ through showing their love to others as well.
(Does that make any sense? I don't know, but it does to me. Sometimes, I'm abstract, but I know what I feel and think).
I feel relationships have lost their true meaning and value because so many relationships are just in it for the other person and not on an equal value. How is that fair to the other person and you alone?
It isn't.
Sometimes, relationships are in it for the right reasons at first, but as time goes on, the honesty in the hearts cringe away because of the world tackling what was once healthy to make it a disease.
(I am not saying every relationship is a disease. I'm saying that they can turn to be 'emotionally deadly' and damage happiness for one person, despite one is happy, it will soon turn to a spread of a plague that destroys happiness and sometimes a once was friendship and what was between the two beings).

I see relationship after relationship between pretty much all of my friends. Most of my friends are dating and I am extremely happy for them. I want the best for the each of them and all the more being that their hearts are protected and healthy, nothing less, nothing more. Just for them to be happy and healthy in what they're involved of, and same for that significant other despite I may not know them or even if I do.
It's equal on all parts there.
My confession is...I'm feeling slightly jealous because I've been that, "best friend" to men, and don't get me wrong, I am HONORED, but I do have moments where I sometimes wonder if I've actually met that right guy already or not.


Apart of me feels I've definitely met a few potential guys that would be great for me, and I am for them...
Yet, what I need to remember and continue to do is God has a plan and that one perfect person for me and I am continuously waiting patiently.
I am not in a rush to go into a relationship, but I feel I've healed enough to enter a potential one.
Again, God knows who and the perfect timing for such a relationship to take off. I give Him all the more praises for Him helping me with how I feel in my heart, beliefs, and living for Him on this subject and life as it is.


In or not in a relationship or sure/unsure of our career paths, we should be living our lives to please God. That isn't always easy, but that's why we have a Savior and a God who loves us so much to help us with our daily living and to provide.

A thought of the day:

1 Thessalonians 4

Living to Please God
1 As for other matters, brothers and sisters, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more. 2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

3 It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should learn to control your own body[a] in a way that is holy and honorable, 5 not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God; 6 and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister.[b] The Lord will punish all those who commit such sins, as we told you and warned you before. 7 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 8 Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit.

9 Now about your love for one another we do not need to write to you, for you yourselves have been taught by God to love each other. 10 And in fact, you do love all of God’s family throughout Macedonia. Yet we urge you, brothers and sisters, to do so more and more, 11 and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you, 12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.


We need to be equally committing our hearts to God through everything we do and pursue whether it be a friendship, relationship, hobby, career, talent, etc.
Everything we do needs to be giving all the glory and praises to God through a life pleasing to Him.

God has taught us the right way to live, therefore, we ought to be doing as He has instructed with hearts and minds in the right place of God never out of selfish ambition or frustration.
If one does something out of sinful reasons, they're wronging another, themselves, and God.
We all have moments like these, but I urge everyone to evaluate where you're at in life, relationships, friendships, careers, anything for that matter, and upmostly God so that you're able to get back on the right track and never straying away like a lamb from its Shepard.

I pray that we all know the differences between right and wrong in our hearts for God so we may bring glory to Him, living a life pleasing in His eyes rather than for anyone else or ourselves.

I pray that we also find happiness and learn to truly value what is precious to us, our God.

I pray for all good things in His name.

As always, I hope this was food for a thought to all or some, whoever this reaches, I really pray and hope it has helped you in a significant way in your heart as it did in my own.

Praying for all.
