Scripture: Psalm 139:17-18

How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake, I am still with You.

How many of us really believe that the God of the universe is thinking kind thoughts about us? Doesn't He have more important things to think about? How can He really care about us and be all that this verse says? The key point for us is to realize that God considers us to be very important to Him.

Over and over, the Bible is filled with verses of truth that describe His love for us. John 3:16 tells us that, "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son…" for us.

Jesus came to earth, fully man and fully God, to give His life for our sins so that we may know Him personally. As hard as it may be to believe, God loves us so much that all He wants is to be with us; the God of the universe wants a personal relationship with you and me. That is why He thinks about us so much. That is why He never leaves us.

God love you and wants to spend time with you. He desires your fellowship. This is why mornings spent with the Lord are precious to Him. It is in those moments that He lets us know just how much He loves me. The Lord does not need anything from us, but He wants our attention and our love. He loves to spend quite times with us.

Today, stop and give some time and attention to the Lord. Tell Him you love Him. Thank Him for His thoughts of you and for always being with you.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for the privilege of spending some time alone with you every morning. Help me the maintain this discipline all my life. Scriptural Reading: Psalm 139:13-24
