Psalm 139:17-18 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. v.18 I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!
I hope those verses bless you as much as they blessed me this morning.
How often do we think that God thinks we're not up to much, or not doing too well? Ever thought like that? Well verse 17 says the opposite. 'How precious are your thoughts about me, O God'. When we think precious thoughts about a loved one, are they horrible thoughts? No, of course not, precious thoughts are when we're dwelling on all the things we love about them aren't they? That's what God is doing when He thinks about you and me!
The Psalmist goes on to say He's thinking so many thoughts like that about us he can't even count them, they're more than the grains of sand on the seashore. We've probably all been to the seashore at some time and remember sand running through our fingers. Let it remind you that God is thinking His countless lovely precious thoughts about you all the time. When we let that soak down into our hearts we'll feel a lot better.
When God thinks about you they're warm, full of love, wonderful thoughts, not 'oh dear' thoughts!
Just think, when you woke up this morning God was still with you. When you wake up tomorrow morning God will still be with you. And you know what, if you were to wake up tomorrow morning in heaven instead of on earth, then God will still be with you and wherever you are God is thinking the most lovely thoughts about you. Amen.
Have a blessed day everyone.
