God’s more interested in the deeper aspects of our lives than what we often focus on. 

What’s happening in our world right now confirms this truth: we have zero control over most things in life. Yet, the Lord never created us for control. Control was always meant to remain with Him.

“For kingship belongs to the Lord, and he rules over the nations.” (Psalm 22:28)

Our heavenly Father created us for dependency on Him.

Therefore, here are 4 things God’s more interested in from us as His children.

(1.) God is more interested in our surrender than our sufficiency. 

Although your struggles, needs, and empty spaces may look different than mine, we all experience the same moments of desperation. 

Like the kind that makes us hope we are all cried out someday. The kind that makes us question our faith. And praying the same prayer over and over because of a lingering void in our life. 

But we hold the power not to let it affect the trajectory of our lives. Our power comes in focusing on how complete God is, not how incomplete we are. We concentrate on our heavenly Father’s sufficiency instead of our shortage. 

To do this, we put the spotlight on God’s power and glory. Total serenity comes in placing our hope in the Lord alone. So, we fully surrender to who He is as God and Lord over our lives.

“Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God.” (2 Corinthians 3:4)

Prayer: Lord, help me surrender to You. Because in You, I  find true sufficiency. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
