words spoken gently to you?
~Job 15:11
When you're feeling down, who do you go to first? When you have exciting news, who is the first person you tell? When you're happy, who do you usually share your joy with?
I've noticed, personally, I always go to my best friends. God put those people in my life for that very reason, however, I think I forget that humans aren't the only beings I can share my sadness, excitement, and jubilation with. God wants to know what's going on with me, too (even if He does already know, I think He likes it when I tell Him).
Quite often I tend to skim over God's presence and search for consolation and affirmation in my fellow humans. I realize now that I need to stop doing this. Although my friends love me and can almost always cheer me up, no one can care for me and love me better than God. God put my best friends in my life so that I can commune with them and go through life with them, but God is my Creator, Savior, and Lord. Why shouldn't He be the first I go to?
