What Do You Think?

“How precious also are Thy thoughts unto me, O God; how great is the sum of them” (Ps 139:17). God knew you and me before He intricately formed us in our mother’s womb, creating us uniquely; no one’s DNA is identical. And although parents provide daily needs, teach, guide, and protect their children, the acts of our Father’s care for us are far more significant and numberless. He knows our thoughts, plans, and how we will deal with situations. God knows the number of our days, the tasks He designed us to accomplish in our lifetime. We cannot escape His watchful eye, always on us, knowing how we will react to and handle life’s every circumstance. Like the psalmist, do we think of God’s thoughts toward us as precious, invaluable, or are they a cause for concern? How warm are your thoughts toward this loving God when sometimes, He doesn’t act on your behalf the way and time you hoped He would? When we wake each morning, it would be helpful to be mindful of and keep God, who knows, sees, and holds everything, before us and live in awe and fear of Him. He is worthy.
