You have been chosen to be the Lord's heritage!
He looks down from heaven and sees how you give reverence to him in your everyday life. He is always there to protect you from harms way and provides you with all the things you need to keep going.
Hope in his love and all the desires of your heart will soon follow.
Let you heart be glad in the Lord and always trust his holy name.
Father God, you are my help and my shield! In Jesus Name, I pray that your love overflows in my heart so that abundant blessings may be poured upon me. My hope is in you for I trust your holy name.

I HAVE TRUSTED IN MY OWN BEAUTY
There are times when the Lord has to remind us of how we came to be in order to realize what we are today. Our trust in him depends on how we view ourselves in the light of all that he has done for us. Are we to say that, “what we are today is a product of our own making?”
Humanity in God’s creation is a concept made alive.
At the time of your conception, the LORD chooses who your parents will be and what race you will belong. Then he conceives you in your mother’s womb.
At birth, while still covered with blood, God utters his first word to you, “Live!”
You then began to live in the world by inhaling your first breath. This is the miracle of life that brought you into existence in the world.
As you grow up, the Lord constantly forms your physical features and attributes such as your height, built, and even the kind of hair you will have.
In your teenage years, you began to enter the “age for love”.
This is the stage of your life where you are very much conscious of how you look in terms of being attractive to others in order to express the love that is in your heart.
The love that is in your heart is the “God in you”.
Upon reaching the age of maturity, the Lord prepares you to be a model to the next generation. He gives you all the resources you need in order to be successful. Nothing but the best is in store for you such as the finest clothing, jewelry and any material wealth that you desire.
Why? He wants you to look good!
Success produces fame and fortune. If you are not cautious of the Lord’s miracles, blessings, and mighty works over your life from the time you were conceptualized as his creation, you may end up thinking that all such fame and fortune is a product of your own making.
Instead of trusting the Lord, you now trust your own assets thinking that this has brought you to where you are today. You begin to live outside the realm of God’s word who bestowed upon you all these graces because your desires is now completely in your hands.
All these things will come and go for nothing is permanent except the Lord.
He was, he is, and forever will be the God who made it all possible for us to be what we are and where we are today.
A reflection on : Ezekiel 16: 1 - 15, 60, 63
