God Is Thinkiing About You, Exponentially

17 How precious to me are your thoughts, 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.
Psalm 139:17-18

There is a word we throw around a whole lot in these United States of America, in which I live.  The word is ..... "AWESOME!"  Well... I am about to share some awesome stuff with you.  And it finds it rock bottom foundation in the Bible words written above. Check out what is really being said.  God's thoughts toward you and me out number the grains of sand:

Here is challenge: Go out on the beach or just to a sand pile with a T spoon.  Dip it in the sand and get a big ole scoop.  Now, moisten your finger and put it to the sand.  Look at it and attempt to count that sand.  I am telling you, it will not be easy to count that sand; however, this assignment is not over.  NEXT, after you have counted the sand on your finger tip, rub that finger dry and then moisten it again.  I am sure you cannot count all the grains of sand in that T spoon.

Sometimes we don't feel like God is around.  Sometimes we feel like God is a million miles away, and we feel as if we are the least likely person or persons to be given any little ole consideration by the ALMIGHTY!!!!  WRONG!  While you are a "frettin," I am a "bettin" God is thinking about you exponentially. And if you don't believe it, then you are believing the WRONG thing! I invite you to change your view point.

Read ALL of Psalm 139.  I guarantee God KNOWS you, and HE knows ALL about you.  Come on... you can do it.  Get out that dusty old Bible and check out this faith building passage that will help you see you as God sees you.  Did you get that Bible out yet?  Come on.  Its Psalm 139.  Open up that Bible and read it Reeeeeealllllllllllll slow. YOU ARE NOT FORGOTTEN! 

Listen: God thinks about you all the time.  Are you wounded? You are not forgotten.  Are you alone?  You are not forgotten.  Dad... is there little or no work for you?  You are NOT forgotten.  Brother/Sister, are you unemployed?  You are not forgotten.  Are your relationships less than you want?  You are NOT forgotten. Soldier,Sailor, Airman, Marine, Coastie,Veteran... do you feel no one cares?  You are not forgotten. Are you worn out doing that thing you feel is just not right...parenting your parent and removing their liberty as it breaks your heart.  You are NOT forgotten! You may be sick and tired of being sick and tired.  YOU are NOT forgotten.  Single mother trying to scrape by and rear your kids I want you to know you are not forgotten. No matter how short is the money, no matter how deep the valley, how hot the desert sand, how cold the night, how damp and wet the winter.... y-o-u are NOT alone.  Feed on God's word.  Read it again and again.  Make it your own.  Let faith rise up and warm your soul!Then...

              Be Blessed 2-day, My Friend... Especially 2-day

Stepping Stones For Victorious Christ Centered Living #20 Shake A Little Salt

  The Challenge of Having An Unsavory Life. We live in a world where a whole lot of people are suffering:  Many struggle spiritually. Others,  because of their spiritual issue, have emotional struggles. Still others have relationships that are strained. Financial issues also may be added into the mix; additionally, physical challenges,  or health challenges, are a part of this. Mix a little high pace, and rarely slowing down in life, and you can see something is really going on impacting life in a negative way. In other words  all of these, plus any number of other things experienced in the 21st century, contribute to people experiencing unsavory lives. Jesus Speaking to You and M e Jesus has something to say about this. And He wants each of us to help out by, first beginning to embrace our identity. He wants us "become" so we match our identity, and if we don't, we really miss out and mess up.  Check out what He says, as He expressly tells us who we are. A...

Looking Back To Have A Future: Overcoming Storms

Stepping Stones For Victorious Christ Centered Living #1 Therefore, anyone who hears the words of mine-- and puts them into practice -- is like a wise man who built his house on a rock: The rain came down, the streams rose, the winds blew, and beat against the house; yet, it did not fall, because it had its foundation on THE ROCK! BUT Everyone who hears these words of mine, and does NOT put them into practice, is like a foolish man who built his house on sand: The rain came down, the streams rose, the winds blew, and beat against the house. And IT FELL WITH A GREAT CRASH! Jesus (Matthew 7:24-27 S T O R M S Storms seem to come into everyone's life. Some experience more, and others experience less; however, the winds of adversity do, indeed, come. Some even howl like a Category-5  hurricane that beats relentlessly on the shores of people's lives. Dear Christ Follower, some of you know precisely what I am saying. And I am here to tell you Jesus provides us with Stepping Stones fo...

2024 Let God Help Make Your Life Beautiful

Ready or Not Here It Comes Leap year is upon us. Yep! We get to have one extra day on the calendar of 2024. And as the new year opens up before our very eyes, whatever we bring into this year -- good, bad, happy or sad -- will be a part of the fabric of this new year. For some of us this will be challenging. Why? Because some are really struggling with what is going on in our culture. Many are having to grapple with spiritual, emotional, relational, financial and/or physical struggles. And just because people are saying "HAPPY NEW YEAR" these challenges are still very real. So, how are we to get ready for this if the new year, in focus, appears anything but happy? But Remember -- God I have learned that when life meets us head on, it is important to think of all these challenges, but remember God:  As Christ Followers, you and I are not in this journey alone, and as the ancient wisdom of Ecclesiastes 3:11a teaches, "God makes ALL things beautiful in it's time." ...
