“Blessed be the Lord, my rock who trains my hands for battle and my fingers for warfare. He is my faithful love and my fortress, my stronghold and my deliverer. He is my shield, and I take refuge in him; he subdues my people under me. Lord, what is a human that you care for him, a son of man that you think of him? A human is like a breath; his days are like a passing shadow.”
Psalms 144:1-4 CSB
When I look around creation, from mighty unending rivers, to majestic snow covered mountains, pounding ocean waves and infinite starry skies…everything reminds me that I am small, insignificant, less than a flicker. I guess my place in creation is easy enough to think about, but then realizing that God pays attention to me. He knows me, listens to my thoughts, fears and joys. He desires that I seek Him in every small detail of life. That is unexpected, it doesn’t make sense from my limited human perspective…but it is true!
We are so blessed to have a God who wants to know us. A God who cares about the details of life, our inner thoughts, anxieties and hopes. Lord, help me to remember that is who You are…and not too big to care about all those things. Help me to bring every thought to You to purify it, sort it out and clarify it. Help me to know You and be known by You!
