Psalm 40:5: Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done; And Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order; If I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.
Experiencing Jesus in the Psalms
God has revealed what He thinks of us by sending His Son to die on the cross. At the time I am writing this, I often hear speculations as to the possibility of life on planets other than our own. I am certainly no expert in this field, but I think it may be possible that other planets are inhabited. But I can guarantee this: there will not be a cross on any of the planets out there in space. It was only here that the Son of God died on a cross. How wonderful! “Many, O Lord my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are toward us.” My, how the Cross reveals God’s love for us! 1
Living the Transformed Life
O Lord, how great are Your works! Your thoughts are very deep. Psalm 92:5
- He has wonderfully created us and redeemed us, and filled us with His Holy Spirit.
- He has wonderfully prepared a home in heaven for us, and will come and get us at just the right time.
- He has wonderfully kept us in His thoughts, and has never stopped loving us.
The wonderful thing about God, is how wonderful He truly is.
Praise and Prayer
Thank You, Father, for always remembering me, every moment of every day. Dear Jesus, teach me more about Yourself through the wonder of Your creation.
