Your Relationship With God Is Your Own

What's up, wonderful, amazing, sweet, and lovely people! How are you all doing today? I hope you're having an amazing day, and I hope you still choose your joy. Welcome to MaryamsJoyfulLife!

Today, I want to talk about something that really sparked my thoughts. Someone asked me why they should take their relationship with God seriously when they see people like me who have a nose ring.

My response is simple: your relationship with God has nothing to do with me.

If you want to get closer to God and have a relationship with Him, that decision belongs to you. You are a grown adult, and you get to make your own decisions and live with the consequences of those decisions.

We have to stop outsourcing our happiness, peace, and decisions to other people. Nobody is obligated to change themselves to make you happy. You cannot control how other people act, but you can control yourself.

I have tasted and seen that the Lord is good. That is why I will continue praying, studying, meditating, seeking God, and keeping my heart right.

Your faith should not depend on whether another person looks, acts, or lives the way you think a Christian should. Sometimes God can even use someone you don't expect to teach you something you need to hear.

Don't allow your feelings toward another person to cause you to miss what God is trying to show you.

As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

God sees your heart. He knows you completely. Your relationship with Him is personal, and you have to choose to seek Him for yourself.

Don't take the opinion of man as the final say. With God, all things are possible.
