Me-Maw Thoughts

What person or persons occupy our thoughts?

For most of us we think about the people we love the most! Our spouse, our children, our dad and mom, our grandchildren, friends and on down the line!

Have you ever considered what the God of the universe thinks about? Have you every asked yourself what is important enough for the God who created it all to have on His amazing and wonderful mind?

May I tell you it is you and I!!

Psalm 139:17 (KJV)
How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!

Stop and think about this for a moment! You and I occupy a place in the Lord God Almighty’s thoughts.

I have a hard time comprehending that! What about you!

The one who Loves us and created us is also thinking good thoughts toward us!

Psalm 40:5 (KJV)
Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

I am just sitting here trying to wrap my finite human mind around the fact the God cares enough about me that He is thinking good thoughts toward me and has good plans for me! His thoughts toward me are more than can be numbered?

I am now asking myself, what is He thinking when He thinks of me?

Isaiah 55:8-9 (KJV)
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Go back and read that last scripture passage again. His thoughts and His ways cannot be explained or understood!

As much as we yield ourselves to the Holy Spirit, His thoughts and His ways are higher, better, and more wonderful than we can comprehend or imagine!

Our thoughts about those we Love are sometimes accompanied by tears because they may not understand our love or that God’s ways are better. Or maybe they are going through a really rough time and our heart is aching for them.

I believe God also weeps, just as God in the flesh, Jesus, wept over Jerusalem. When we decide we can run our life better than He can, he weeps. When we hurt, He weeps and sends the comforter, the Holy Spirit, to minister comforter.

He thinks of His children who are of a different country than earth and are marching to the truth instead of the lies of society and He Loves us and will guide us to victory in every situation if we will release our entire lives to Him!

Just as we find in ourselves or our children, we sometimes have to experience the result of our own way before we realize His way is always best!

I ask you what I asked myself earlier in this writing. What is God thinking about you!

Jeremiah 29:11 (KJV)
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

God is good! God does good all the time! When we cannot see His hand at work, we must trust His loving and caring nature. Trust the one who redeemed us and set us free from the bondage of sin.

His thoughts and ways are higher than ours and we just need to Trust and walk in Faith and Victory!

Let this truth sink deep into your Spirit; You are on God’s mind!!!

Father, in Jesus’ name I come! What is man that you are mindful of us? Who are we that we would be in your thoughts and on your mind? We cannot phantom that kind of Love and care, but we can receive it. I ask you to fill each of us with the security and truth that you Care and Love us, have out best at heart and will fight every battle. We surrender our lives, our cares, and our worries to you, Father, knowing you care for us! Amen

God is thinking of you! Love, MeMaw
