Zechariah 2:8 (NKJV) 8 For thus says the Lord of hosts: \u201cHe sent Me after glory, to the nations which plunder you; for he who touches you touches the apple of His eye.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If we need constant attention from our spouse, our family and\/or our friends etc., there may be an underlying problem going on.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

If we find ourselves getting upset, sad, depressed, or angry over not having\u00a0enough\u00a0attention at\u00a0times, it\u00a0could possibly be we are dealing with insecurities within ourselves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We\u00a0can’t always put the blame on someone else for not giving us the attention we feel we need. We need to face what is going on inside\u00a0of\u00a0us\u00a0and get the right kind of help.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We\u00a0may\u00a0have been hurt from words\u00a0or\u00a0accusations spoken over us at one time or another.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Maybe someone has\u00a0spoken down to us and made\u00a0us feel\u00a0inadequate,\u00a0ignorant and not worth\u00a0much.\u00a0And now we strive for a certain amount of attention from certain people in order to make us feel better about ourselves.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

No matter how much attention we get from others,\u00a0it will not heal or take away the pain we feel from this\u00a0kind of treatment,\u00a0behavior or actions\u00a0against us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The words and feelings\u00a0will\u00a0torment us until we face it and get healing from God.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Because of what has been said or done to us at times, it may\u00a0have\u00a0scarred us,\u00a0leaving us not sure of ourselves and\u00a0insecure\u00a0about who we are. This can cause us to constantly be demanding\u00a0attention.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Striving to have all the\u00a0attention will never fix the problem. There\u00a0will never be enough attention to take\u00a0it\u00a0away.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We must rebuke the lies that have been spoken\u00a0over us,\u00a0about us and against us. We must also rebuke, in\u00a0the name\u00a0Jesus\u00a0Christ, the negative\u00a0and\u00a0ignorant words\u00a0that\u00a0are trying to control us and our behavior.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Ask God to set us free and heal our mind and heart and help us to see ourselves the way He sees us, as the apple of His eye. Amen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
