“Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand; when I awake, I am still with You.” (Psalm 138:16-18)
Contemplate the eternal being of God. In this verse alone, we hear clearly that God did not just set the earth in motion, but knew what He was doing and with great purpose made a place for each of us. He planned for our existence. This is true for each person who has or ever will live. How marvelous the thought! Ponder anew the magesty of God and His purpose for you.
Lord, these things are too deep for me. How can I begin to grasp the breadth and depth of Your being? You have revealed truth and have called me unto Yourself that I may abide in You forever. Guide me, O Lord, in the way that is true. Lead me in the way that will hold me fast to You always. Let me not wander away in this evil age, but dwell in the light of Your presence forever.
Lord Jesus, You have come to illuminate what is right and true. You have come to clear the path that all who seek truth will find You. Guide me, O Lord, in the way of truth that I may now and always abide with You and You with me. Help me through all that will come that would lead me astray that I may remain with You forever. In the magnitude of the Father’s will, keep me in His presence. Amen.
