Psalm 8:3-4—When I look at your heavens, the work of your
fingers, the moon and the stars that you have established; what are human
beings that you are mindful of them, mortals that you care for them?
It really is a magnificent revelation when we realize how
much our Creator truly loves us. Just
take a look around at the beauty of this earth.
The oceans, the mountains, fields, valleys, forests, streams, and
rivers—there is no end to the wondrous landscape. And the wonder becomes even greater when we
look up to the heavens. The phases of
the moon, the brilliance of the sun as it rises and sets each day, and the
billions of stars that wink at us through the night. We can marvel at all the animals of the
planet and the perfect ecosystems that sustain life. It’s obvious the care with which God crafted
this creation. And even so, above all
things, He values us, mankind. With all
His splendor and power, His transcendence, He desires intimacy with us. He seeks us out, chases after us, cares about
every little thing we do. He delights
when we wake in the morning and praise His Name. He is ecstatic when we dedicate our last words
of the day in prayer to Him. And He
watches over us as we sleep. He loves
us!
Today as you pray and meditate on His Word, praise God for
His Mercy. Thank Him for being mindful
of you and chasing after you to shower you in His Grace. Worship Him by listening to and meditating on
the words of Who Am I,
