DO YOU CARE WHO CARES? 

One of the secrets to life is to care what God thinks of you far more than what others think of you! When you consider his thoughts of the highest importance and of the most significant value, your down days will come to a grinding halt and your best days yet will seemingly arise out of nowhere.

During Jesus days, many people did believe in him but they wouldn’t admit it for fear that the Pharisees would expel them from the synagogue. For they loved human praise more than the praise of God. (John 12:42-43 NLT) 

Proverbs 29:25  Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is kept safe.

A person who bases their life upon how others perceive them will live a chaotic and roller coaster life. A sure foundation for life is found when a person considers, above all else, we what God thinks of them! God’s plan for you is the best plan! 

Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

In all of the universe, you are what excites God the most! From the very beginning, all he has wanted is for you to be close to him! If you trust him and him alone, you'll find your life increasing and going higher every day! This is the one scenario when you can put all of your eggs in one basket! 

What God thinks of you is secure; what others think of you is at best iffy! It is critical to set your mind on what God thinks of you day in and day out! Colossians chapter three says it like this, “Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God."  (Col 3:1–3) 

It is high time only to care what God thinks about us because it’s high time to have a fulfilling, purpose-filled life! Are you ready to go higher? If yes, then you need to ask yourself this question…
