What If God Loves You?
Think how much the Father loves us. He loves us so much that he lets us be called his children, as we truly are. But since the people of this world did not know who Christ is, they don’t know who we are.
1 John 3:1 (CEV)
What if I can’t make the team at this new school? What if I can’t find any friends? What if there’s just nothing to do there?
The what-ifs of a PCS can swirl your brain into a frenzy. The adventure of a new place can bring terror or excitement. But what if you are chosen captain of the team there? What if you find a new best friend who you would move across the globe to be with? What if this new place has an opportunity that changes the course of your life?
How about this: The God of the universe loves you and has adopted you as one of his children. He will never stop taking care of one of his children. So he’ll never stop taking care of you!
What if you and your family treated a PCS like a blind date with God? Imagine he has it all set up with all kinds of exciting gifts for your family along the way. Choose to expect the good, because you can trust that a good God loves you as his children.
This is not to say that a new place won’t be difficult to get used to. But God will help you through it and even strengthen you through the challenges. Your heavenly Father loves you and will take care of you . . . no matter where you live.
SPIRITUAL FITNESS TRAINING
Think about the moves you have made in your life. Think about the good things that came out of those moves. Write a prayer on some paper or in a journal thanking God for these things.

“They who navigate little streams and shallow creeks, know but little of the God of tempests; but they who ‘do business in great waters,’ these see his ‘wonders in the deep.’”
—Charles Spurgeon, a pastor in England in the 1800s
