People are Good for You
People are designed to need God and to need people as well, in fact, there are many important things we can’t fully receive apart from people.
We all need acceptance; it is the cry of everyone to be accepted. We try to dress right, look right and talk right just to fit in. We know we are accepted by God but often we struggle to know it in our heart. What can help us is the acceptance of people? When acceptance also comes from Gods people, we can feel love. We need God with skin on; someone who Jesus is “wearing.”
Often people that live in isolation, nearly always feel bad about themselves. Often they feel guilty. They reason, if I feel lonely, I must not be loved and if I'm unlovable it must be because I'm bad.
Grace is the foundation of all true success and life from God. Everything we receive; everything you have; including grace itself is by grace. 1Peter 4.10 Grace is something that has to come from outside of us; from God or others. God uses His Body to dispense His grace. Many of Gods gifts to His children, come to us through the Body. Knowing God’s love and forgiveness also goes from our head to our hearts, when we experience it through His people.
Friend, we receive Life from God only, but often He dispenses it to us, through His body the Church. Find a true friend today or reach out to the one you trust already.
