As a woman I love for the man I love to want me all to himself. It makes me feel good. Well, the bible says that God wants us for Himself. The bible says He is a jealous God. In the bible God takes out whole nations for the sake of His people. This is whom we call "Father". Often times in the world we turn to worldly things to satisfy us and God, the Father wants us to turn to Him and only Him. Really, it's only Him that can truely satisfy. Jesus said that those who come to Him will never hunger and those who believe in Him will never thirst. God also wants to be our ultimate companion.

We shouldn't need "noise" in our lives in order to feel secure. We cannot become restless when God invites us into His eternal rest.

I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern. The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media. I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within . Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. A thou
