This morning, driving to work my eyes captured the wonder of this world our Father created. The sunlight shown at just the right angle to highlight all of the tiny details lost during the mid-day sun. The fields with remnants of the past season still showing. The farm animals feeding in the fields of corn that have been abandoned for winter. Tractors sitting idle in anticipation of spring. This morning was a great reminder to me of our Father's attention to detail and I was thankful to share that time with Him.
He impressed on me during that drive to work that there are people who are feeling alone and isolated right now, even rejected. Is that you?
We may find ourselves surrounded by people, but we can still feel alone if we feel no one really cares or really knows who we are. That is why I want to share this verse with you today. Do you know that your Father in Heaven is thinking about you every second of the day? He thought of you even before you were born! Our Father in Heaven - our Dad - loves each of us so much! If you are feeling alone and isolated right now, let me encourage you to know that the one that made you is not only with you right now, but He is excited about being with you. Yes, no matter your state of mind or body, your Father in Heaven is with you right now and will never leave you! You are loved beyond words! Soak that in as you read this verse:
Psalm 139:13-18
“For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You. When I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in your book they were all written. The days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, Oh God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; When I awake I am still with you."
My prayer for you today is that even in the busyness of life where we race from one task to the next or maybe in the loneliest of times, you are reminded of, and take hold of, your Heavenly Father's immense love for you. Yes, for you.
