"Many, Or Lord my God are Your wonderful works Which you have done; And Your thoughts toward us Cannot be recounted to You in order; If I woud declare and speak of them, They are more than can be numbered." Psalm 40:5
Many of us will be deeply in love with someone. As you go about your daily activities you just can't help thinking about them. They may be the first thing you think of in the morning and then the last thought you have before you go to sleep. While you eat, drive, work, or even talk, they are the only thing on your mind.
This is an awesome description of how much God loves us and thinks about us. The love that God has for us is so strong that we are always on His mind. The Psalm says that He thinks about so much about us that we cannot count how much he thinks about us. Even at this very moment as I am writing this and at the moment that you are reading this He is thinking about us. There is no way for us to count His thoughts towards us, isn't that amazing! For many of us that is so hard to take in. Many of us face temptations and trials that make us second guess the love and thoughts that God has towards us.
Let's be honest and say that there will be many things that happen in our life that challenge this Psalm, things that me us feel unloved and forgotten. We must realize that truth about God is not based on our how we feel. We must take these truths that are declared by God through his Word. His love and His Word should be the sturdy foundation for us on a daily basis.
My prayer is that the Lord would soften our hearts to receive these this truth about God. The truth that no matter what our situation may be He is thinking about us and we cannot even fathom the number of thoughts towards us. I pray that we would have the opportunity to share this with others.
God bless you all,
