Am I Important to Someone?Sýnishorn
When he said the rain would come, it was a reality. When he said that the child would live, it was a fact. When he said that fire would come from heaven, it would happen. All by faith.
Elijah was a man of faith, he achieved great victories, and he was able to overcome circumstances that were not possible in the eyes of any human, all by that faith that moves mountains.
But one day, everything was different for him. He felt the danger, and he felt fear. It's strange... Why would a man of faith feel fear? What happened at that moment?
The truth is that Elijah was fleeing. And at the time of fleeing, he was exhausted, he had already used all his faith, those times when you say: "I have nothing more to do, I have already prayed, I am already trying to do everything I can, I don't know if it's right or not, but I'm tired of trying."
In those moments, fatigue exhausts even the mind, and we think that perhaps God is over, too. We believe that the level of our faith dictates what God can do for us.
Certainly, faith moves mountains, but if you have no strength and everything is over for you, even so God can move mountains and universes too. Our faith does not dictate God's will and purpose for our lives.
Elijah said: "I'm fed up Lord, take my life." When we believe that we can't take it anymore, we also believe that God can't take it anymore, but we are very far from reality.
Recently, I heard a preacher say: "When Elijah was at his peak of faith, he was fed by ravens; but in his greatest moment of weakness, on that mountain, he was fed by angels, and God himself appeared to him."
God cares about you. If you are in your greatest moment of anguish, sadness or weakness, God cares about you. God himself shelters you and it does not depend on the strength you have or if you think that everything is over.
God cares about you.
We can praise and worship the God who can do all things and who governs everything with the will of his hand, who did not spare his own son to see our salvation, and who loves us, whether we have great faith or whether we are hiding in fear.
God loves you, and God cares about you.
If you are hidden, God is also there taking care of you and asking, "Why are you here?" not because he doesn't know, but so that you understand that he has already found you and that his love protects you completely. If you are at your peak of faith, God is with you, accompanying you and giving you all his love.
Whether you are strong or not, God is with you, and He cares about you.

About this Plan
"Who matters to?" is a question we all must answer at some point. However, the answer lies within another question, so when this world challenges us to answer, God already has an answer waiting.
