Be Mindful

God is mindful of us. He has us on his mind. We are the apple of his eye and he knows everything about us. He is Jehovah Shaamah, the God who is ever present. He is Emmanual, God is with us. There is nothing about us that ever misses his eye. He has planned our life in detail so we need never fear.

We too, the holy Spirit is cultivating in us a mindfulness as we grow in God. He gives us a caring heart that is mindful of the need of others. We become thoughtful and look outside of our own need to see the need of others. As we grow in our prayer life, as we grow in our relationship with God, we will find we become more and more like Jesus. He develops in us a compassionate heart and a grace to meet the need of others. The fruit of the spirit begins to manifest in our lives. A young believer may not be as mindful as a mature believer, but there is still potential to grow.
