It blesses me when someone says, “I was just thinking of you.” We all want to be loved and thought of. Obviously the ones we love and care for are the ones we think about all the time.
The Heavenly Father expresses His love to us in many ways, and perhaps it is best said, in “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son.” What a wonderful relationship God has setup with His children. The thought came to me. How much does God think of us? My wife answered it with the following verse:
How precious are your thoughts about me, O God.
They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them;
They outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up, you are still with me!
Psalm 139:17, 18 NLT
Recently Jeanie was prayer journaling with the Father. After she wrote what was on her heart to the Father, she listened for His response. What really blew her heart away was His final words, “I love you my child every nanosecond of the day.”
What is a nanosecond? It is one billioneth of a second. That is mind blowing! He thinks about us a billion times a second. My next thought was, “How much time am I spending thinking about Him?” At least now I am motivated to think about Him more.
And what can I do that blesses Him while thinking of Him? Speaking in tongues! It is His way of helping us talk to our Heavenly Father all day long. When you speak in tongues you are magnifying Him (Acts 10:46); you are giving Him thanks well (I Corinthians 14:15 & 17); you are speaking the wonderful works of God (Acts 2:11); you are worshipping God truly with the spirit (John 4:23 & 24 and Philippians 3:3).
What is so fantastic is that we can SIT while driving, eating, working, dancing, running etc. Our fellowship with our Heavenly Father is the greatest source of joy in our lives.
