Here… Always
“But you, O LORD, sit enthroned forever; your renown endures
through all generations… But you remain the same, and your years will never
end.” –Psalm 102:12, 27
I’m 15, right smack in the middle of my teenage years. Most
of us teens go through daily struggles such as breakups or being embarrassed by
peers. I go through the same things as you. I get the occasional pimple and
have my dramatic moments just like the rest of you. Sometimes it feels like God
isn’t here. It feels like he has abandoned us in our time of need. And that is
simply not true…
God was, is and yet to come. Take a breakup for instance, you
are heartbroken and feel like you lost your soul mate. I’m quite familiar with
this feeling myself. God is omnipresent, which means he is always there. Sometimes we pray asking for our crush to like us
or for us to get the MVP of our sports team. This is not how we should pray to God. We pray to him and praise him for
his wonders. Pray for family and friends that may be struggling. Again, never
forget to thank him for His blessings.
It is perfectly fine to pray for yourself. In 2010, I had a
tumor and I constantly prayed for healing. But sometimes I would curse God. I
would judge Him and then ask why this was happening to me. God has intentions
for all of us, a plan. God, no matter how bad things seem, will provide for you. Breaking up can be rough, but what breaking
up truly is that God is saying he/she is not the one, you haven’t found him/her
yet. Isn’t that amazing? Even before we were born God already knew who we would
marry, how many kids we would have, and even our first job! Think about that
for a moment… How amazing our God is! God is here, he will never leave you. He will never
forsake you.
