By grace you have been saved through faith, not of works, let anyone should boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
No matter how hard I try, my works do not impress God. God does, however, respond to my humility, faith, thanksgiving, and praise.
God is not concerned with how nice or how big our homes are, the cars we drive, the amount of money we earn, the things we own, fame, fortune, wealth, or beauty. He is not concerned if we win or lose. He is concerned with wanting to have a relationship with us, and in order for that relationship to bloom, we must seek Him in humility and ask for forgiveness.
God wants us to follow His lead and not the life that we have plotted out for ourselves. Seek God, ask forgiveness for your sins, and let God lead you. Your appearance, status, power, and performance mean very little to God, He is more concerned with the state of your heart.
