I think we all sometimes overlook the small things in our lives and take forgranted how loved we are. Love is such a strong word and we overuse it so much that it doesn't mean as much as it should. I know I take forgranted the love that my mom and sister have for me and I know I shouldn't. Another thing that I take forgranted is God's love for me. I know that God loves me but I can't seem to comprehend just how much He does. It makes me feel upset inside because I often feel so unloved, but I long for others to love me here on earth because I feel like God's love for me I can't see as much and I can't feel it the same way as often as love from actual people.

Have you ever wanted someone to care for you? just one person who truly cares? It sure seems like there is nobody who always seems to care or understand. I feel like someone always lets me down in some way or another- we all do! We are human and we can't always be there for someone. But you know what, God isn't human, so He is always there for us no matter what. When we feel alone, He is right beside us reassuring us it is okay. When we feel unloved He reminds us that He loves us and that is all that matters. When we are feeling afraid, we know that He will guide us and will give us the courage we need to fight. When we are weary and tired, He will allow us to find the strength through Him to continue on.
Please know that if you are feeling like you want just one person to understand your feelings or thoughts, know that you can always go to God 24/7 and He will listen to you no matter what. And know that I'm here too if you ever need someone to listen to how your day went or just want someone to understand how you are feeling. I don't mind listening. I know sometimes I feel like I just want someone to tell, but don't know who. : ) But feel free to contact me through the Contact page ; )
Thanks so much for dropping by! have a great Sunday!
I think no one cares about me.... I'm an orphan... My "family" doesn't care about me.... :'(

ReplyDeleteLove ~*Chantelle*~
Thanks so much Chantelle!! : )
Deleteit's funny because I was just stopping by your blog to let you know that I am praying for you and then you posted this blog post.
ReplyDeletethis is so true on so many levels and I can say that there have been many times that I have felt that way...like no one cares. but I found my strength and refuge...and WORTH in God. It's funny now, because when I slip away from God time to time, I feel so worthLESS when I am without him...he really does define my worth and he really does care.
I think I may have told you this verse before. idk. But it is one that I hold very dear to my heart. 1 Corinthians 1:9. It says "god, who you are called to share everything with, is faithful...."
I love that because it plainly states that we are to share everything with God. That's why he made us.
anyway, the real reason I stopped by your blog was to let you know that I am praying for you Britt. and if you ever need a penpal (I love to write people as well as get letters) you can let me know! ;)
you have a great day!!!

Thanks so much for this Britt. I sometimes have bad days at school, so I might email you sometime if you wouldn't mind.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Hannah
aww...yeah, school is hard! Especially some days they are so bad all you want to do is come home and cry! I would love to have you email sometime!!! : ) thanks for your comment!
DeleteOh Britt....Every SINGLE time I stumble upon your blog...seriously. Ahhh, so so relate able! Like you mentioned, it's hard to truly comprehend God's love for us when we cannot physically see Him. It's easy to get so lonely and long for love, but we are never truly alone and His love is greater than any human's love could EVER be. Thank you for this reminder, I truly needed it tonight.
ReplyDeleteAww....thanks so much Jessica! I'm so glad that you feel that way and you can relate!! that truly makes my day!!!! : ) I feel so good when others can relate and use the posts I write to help them : ) So true, what great words of wisdom Jessica! Aww...you are so welcome! thanks for your comment and for taking the time to leave your thoughts!!
Delete"Love is such a strong word and we overuse it so much that it doesn't mean as much as it should." You just said it. Its so true, we tend to say we love, but actually we don't, love is forever. Just like our mom and dad, they are always there to love us and protect us no matter what the situation is, true love or perfect love is unconditional! Nice post :)
ReplyDeleteGreat comment and thanks for sharing your thoughts!!! : ) such true words!
DeleteI know I say this a lot (and I mean it every time) but, this is a very good post!! I totally know how you feel since I've felt that same way myself many times. Thanks for posting this and I want you to know that I appreciate you being there for me and I want you to know that I am here for you whenever you need to talk to someone. I know I'm not that great at replying back to emails but if you have something you need to talk about shoot me an email, message me on Google+, or write it in a letter. Whatever you want to do when you need to. =) You're a great friend to me and it's a blessing knowing you Britt! May God continue to show His love to you and bless you and your family!
ReplyDeleteaww...thanks so much Chasity!!! I appreciate you in my life as well Chasity! :) thanks for being such a great friend. Thanks for your heartfelt comment and for dropping by!
DeleteThank you so much for this post...it really encouraged and uplifted me. It was perfect for this day where I'm sitting all by myself and feeling a bit lonely while having a pity party for myself. Just what I needed to get up and motivated and feel loved! :)
ReplyDeleteoh, I hate days like that, glad this could have been a little encouragement to you! thanks for letting me know how it impacted you. Thanks for dropping by!
