Personal Notes - Psalm 139:18 (Part 1)


“If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with Thee”.

Counting involves pride and here the Lord show you the futility of trying to even imagine how faithfully He thinks of you every moment of your life. Like a child who has learned to count to 100 sitting on a beach trying to count just the grains of sand they can put into a sand pail – we can’t imagine, let alone appreciate the value He places on us. But we can remember the demonstration of His love for us, thank Him and love those He brings into our lives.

“By this the love of God was manifested in us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world so that WE might LIVE through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but the HE loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation (complete and perfect payment) for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” I John 4:9-11

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene
