A prayer of Belonging
My loving obedience is proof I belong to God
Dear God,
I know that obeying you is an important part of belonging to you, because it shows others that I love you. It is out of love that you give commands to your people, to protect us, guide us, and ensure that we experience life to the fullest. Obeying you is a sign that I have accepted your call and that I belong to you. Disobeying you is not so much about breaking a law as breaking your heart by showing that I love myself more than you. God, you are my heavenly Father, who welcomes me into your family and showers me with blessings as I obey you. These blessings may not always be material things, but they are always rich and satisfying—such as peace of mind, lasting joy, and the honor of experiencing your presence. I’m so grateful to belong to you, and I want to show it. Thank you for sharing the blessings that come from belonging to your family.
Keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just. Then I will do . . . all that I have promised. Genesis 18:19
