God Loves Me.

I have been gone for five days at camp with my youth group. On the last night we do a prayer walk where you go out and pray with a few of the leaders. While I was waiting for the last leader I was laying out under the stars. I sat up and looked at this huge tree in front of me. As soon as I saw the try I felt God telling me that this tree was like the body of Christ. There were so many branches spread out over this really big area and I’m sure thousands of leaves, connected through hundreds of branches, reaching in all different directions. Weather you believe in Christ or not, we are all a part of each others lives. We are all connected, living and breathing together. Also no matter what, if you follow it all back to the source, any branch or twig you pick will lead you right back to the same spot; the tree trunk. That trunk is like God, which we are all a part of and God can be found in some way in every person on this earth.

Just after that one star shined through one spot on the tree. Only one. God told me that star was me. That I was not just one of the billions of his children, but that I was special. That he really cared about me, that he really loved me. I stood up to look at that star which seemed so bright, only to see and remember how many stars are actually out there. Then I realized God was not just saying he loved and cared for me and thought I was special. God was showing me, how he loves every single one of us. That we are all a bright shining star. In God’s eyes we are all special. We are all God’s children and we are all over by him more than we can even start to imagine, and nothing we can even think to do will ever change that.

God loves everyone I will ever know. Yes. Even those ones who i don’t like, the ones who hurt me and the ones who are different from me. None of us are ever alone.
