One of the great truths in the Bible is that we are all the “offspring of God” (Acts 17:29), created in His image. As a child of God, you have infinite potential and worth.
Jesus Christ taught that God is aware of us. He knows each time a sparrow falls to the ground, and we are “of more value than many sparrows” to Him (Matthew 10:29–31). Through every difficulty you face, you are never alone. God knows you perfectly and knows what you need to help you endure your challenges and feel His love.
As our Father in Heaven, God wants to hear from us. He is eager to give you guidance, and you can talk with Him through prayer.
Prayer is more than just a ritual or a way to tell heaven what we want—it’s a conversation. You can talk to God about the things you are grateful for, your hopes and dreams, your worries, and the things you need.
God hears and answers our prayers. Answers to prayer will always come, even if they take time or aren’t the answers we expected or hoped for. We can soften our hearts to accept His will for us. Answers to prayer can take many forms, including thoughts and feelings, the actions of someone around you, or a scripture that touches your heart.
If you struggle with doubts or feeling disconnected from God, you can learn to better recognize His presence in your life.
