Psalm 40:5 NASB

Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, and Your thoughts toward us; there is none to compare with You; If I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count.

"I was thinking of you!"  Why does that comment mean so much to us?  Why does it matter?  After all, it's just a thought.  But it matters.  In a world where people are so focused on themselves, it matters when we become the focus of someone else's attention for good. It makes us feel significant. It gives a lift to the soul.  Someone has said that the worst thing you can do to another person is not to physically or verbally harm them, but to ignore them; treating them as if they aren't there; as if they don't matter.  The most wonderful thing about God is that He thinks about us all the time.  We matter to Him.  But, more than that, He puts His thoughts into action on our behalf.  This is what the Psalmist is saying when he writes, "Many, O LORD my God, are the wonders which You have done, and Your thoughts toward us; there is none to compare with You; If I would declare and speak of them, they would be too numerous to count."  All that God has done, He has done for us!  From creation to the cross, it has been all about us!  This is God saying, "I was thinking of you".  Amazing!  The Psalmist is right. There is none to compare with You!  Thank you Father. Thank you!
