One Year Bible – Day 172

S – God, how precious your thoughts are to me; how vast their sum is! 

If I counted them, they would outnumber the grains of sand; when I wake up, I am still with you.

Psalms 139:17–18 CSB

O – God is thinking about us all the time.  His thoughts about us are so many, it would be virtually impossible to count them.

A – To illustrate this point.  My wife, Kristin, and I have been married for 36 years.  If I filled a square box with 24-inch sides, you could fill it with 5 million grains of sand.  If each grain of sand represents me thinking of her in that time frame, I would think of her just under every 6 seconds.  Now…put that box on any beach.  Now, put that box on all the sands of the earth.  Amazing.

R – Heavenly Father, you alone are the one, true God.  Thank you for thinking of us for more than we can even imagine.  You are for us and your plans are for our best.  We put our faith and trust in you.
