“If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with Thee.“
“Many, O Lord my God, are the wonders which Thou hast done, and Thy thoughts toward us; There is none to compare with Thee; if I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count.” Psalm 40:5
“I lay down and slept; I awoke, for the Lord sustains me.” Psalm 3:5
“—‘ indeed I will greatly bless you, and I will greatly multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens and as the sand which is on the seashore; and your seed shall possess the gate of their enemies. In your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.’" Genesis 22:17-18
Every morning and evening I feed my gold fish and every evening and every morning I have to count out just the exact amount of food (in that with fish if they eat too much they will just die right away), but the food “pellets” are as small as the point of a pencil lead, so I struggle to count them and could never imagine how many are in the container itself. It always reminds me of the passage in Genesis where God talks about how His people would be multiplied like the grains of sand or number of stars in heaven.
Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene
