God's thoughts...

Came across this old entry blog from almost 2 years ago and needed some reminding of it:

Psalm 139:17-18 "How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand!..."

The bible calls David a "man after God's own heart." No wonder he had such a revelation of the mercy and love of God! God's heart towards us is love, because He IS love.

Think, for a minute, if you had a million dollars. And you somehow lose ONE of those dollars. Unless you are insanely meticulous, that ONE dollar is "no big deal," because you have 999,999,999 left. It's insignificant. God's thoughts towards us infinitely outnumber a million or anything else you could try to compare it to. And yet there's not a single one that does not hold significance! There's not one thought from God that's just "no big deal." Each one holds revelation of who He is, and who we are in Him. Each THOUGHT from God has the ability to change who we are and what we're about. Each and every thought FROM God, ABOUT us, is precious! When we view something as precious, we try our hardest to hold onto it, because it is so dear to us. There was such an appreciation in David that God would speak His love towards Him, that each thought was precious to him.

God, that I would be rooted and grounded in love today, and that I wouldn't miss a single thought or word that You want to speak to me...
