Thinking Of You

"....and Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order; if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered."  Psalm 40:5

The thought of someone thinking about you all the time could be good or bad, it could be really sweet or kind of creepy.  If your spouse or boyfriend or girlfriend told you that they thought of you all the time, I'm sure you'd smile and feel warm and fuzzy.  If someone you didn't know, or hardly knew, told you they thought about you all the time, I doubt you'd smile and most likely you'd be scared.
Of course the difference in how you might feel about someone thinking about you, would depend on who they are, and how well you know them.
In Psalm 40, David says that he can't even number the thoughts that God has about him, and it doesn't creep him out, in fact it brings him encouragement and comfort.  There might be some who would panic in knowing that God was thinking about them all the time, but David rejoices in such knowledge.  It speaks of the type of relationship he had with the Lord and how well he knew his God.
I'm with David, I love the fact that the Lord thinks about me all the time.  I know Him, and in the cross He has proven His love for me, so I'm totally blessed that He thinks about me all the time.
In this rough and tumble world where we get bruised and battered, it's easy to feel forgotten.  That is why it's important to stop and remember how much the Lord loves you.  I doubt there are refrigerators in heaven, but if there were refrigerators in heaven, God would have one, and picture of you would be on it!  He really does think about you all the time, and oh how much He loves you.
