Today is my 100th posting to my blog. I can't believe it. It's taken me a while, but I made it to the big 1-0-0. Writing my 100th post makes me think about BIG numbers. One big number stood out to me the most:
"How precious to me are your thoughts, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand.
When I awake,
I am still with you."
In Psalm 139, God talks about his PRECIOUS thoughts towards us. Not the bad ones, the precious ones. And if he tried to count them, 'they would outnumber the grains of sand.' He's not just talking about the grains for sand in the kids playground down the street. He's not just talking about the beach that sits 20 minutes from where I live. His thoughts add up to all the grains of sand everywhere. Now that's a BIG number.
Even in my foolishness, he has these precious thoughts for me. How extremely lucky am I to have a friend like that. I can only hope that I will make my friend proud of me. That I will have those precious thoughts for the people around me. The ones who I adore and even the ones who get on my nerves. Hehe.
Big numbers. No number is bigger than the great and precious thoughts the Lord has for YOU!
