An Idea Borrowed

Years ago on a radio program someone shared that they read a chapter in Proverbs every day. Since there are 31 chapters and the longest month has 31 days it allows you to read through Proverbs on a regular basis. I use it as the launch pad for my personal worship time and branch out from there. On this blog I will try to share some of the insights I have in the Word. I will try to organize them in the archive by reference.

Amazing

(Psa 8:4 KJV)  What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?

(Proverbs 12 also read)

What is God’s most amazing attribute?  If you look at the previous verse you have the concept of creation.  That is awesome beyond our human imagination.  The complexity of the universe and how every little law of physics works together with every other is a never ending investigation into deeper and deeper levels of reality.  

But there is something even more amazing to me.  My morning worship always starts with praising Him as creator and as the God who is, but what is the hardest to visualize?

That He is aware of me as an individual.  God “takes thought” (2142) of us.  The basic meaning of the word is to remember.  God did not just make us and get on with His day.  He stays engaged.  He reaches out to us.  He gave us free will and then sent Jesus to provide the cure for the sin we got ourselves into.  I can feel the amazement of David.  

So?  Try to wrap your head around that.  I have a hard time getting there but it is always an inspiration to try.
