Psalm 8:3–4 “O LORD, our Lord, how excellent, majestic and glorious is Your Name in all the earth! You have set Your Glory on, above the heavens”. He has spoken it… and it is so. In the beginning, when God created the heavens and the earth… He had us in mind… we weren’t just an idea, we were the plan. All He ordained and established weren’t haphazard or random in nature… everything is interwoven, connected, which may be difficult to see from our vantage point. The flesh rejects anything it can’t see, hear, or touch, so seeing the ‘thread’ that connects us to God, to Love, isn’t possible without the Holy Spirit. It’s Love that created all things, putting the plan into motion… the plan that has us scratching our heads and wondering… why He would do all this for us… born into unrighteousness? In Humility, we fall to our knees recognizing our own sin, our own choices separating us from our Most Holy God. It’s here, at the cross, where we come face to face with the One Who created us, the One Who knew us before we were born, knew everything about us, yet… He loves us enough to be the only sacrifice that saves us. While we were yet sinners, He died for us. He ‘sees’ us… when we look up, do we feel small, unimportant, hidden from view? Perhaps like we’re lost in a sea of souls? Jesus said He leaves the 99 sheep to go after the lost one… David reminds us there’s nowhere we can go that God can’t find us, and we know … once we’re His… nothing can take us out of His hands. He’s mindful of us because of Love… because He is Love. Our temporary dwelling place was the first thing God created, Man was the last… He created us for relationship with Him, to ‘walk’ in the Garden with Him, to share our hopes and dreams, our pain and our joy, to share laughter and to love… together. He’s not mindful of us out of need… He’s mindful of us because of Love. Thank you, Lord, for loving us… even when our sin separated us… thank You for being mindful of us… for Loving us to the cross and back
