Word of the Day: God Is Thinking of You
Right now, God has you in His thoughts. Have you ever stopped to think about that? God has a plan for your life, He is thinking about you in everything He does.
17 How precious to me are your thoughts, God!
How vast is the sum of them!
18 Were I to count them,
they would outnumber the grains of sand -
when I awake, I am still with you.
Psalm 139:17-18
Every single thing that happens, whether good or bad, God knows! Yes, it shows an incomprehensible depth and abundance of God's thoughts toward us and an intimate understanding of us. Such a vast sum of thoughts, that the psalmist likens them to countless grains of sand. God's love and concern for His people have no limits. His God's thoughts toward us are constant, unwavering, and immeasurable, extending beyond our comprehension.
6 Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. 7 Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.
Luke 12:6-7
Jesus also highlights God's intimate knowledge and care for His creation, when he mentions the sparrows in Luke 12. He emphasizes that not one sparrow is forgotten by God and that even the very hairs of our heads are known about. The knowledge and understanding of us is so meticulous and detailed that it could only belong to the one who created us. Not only this, but it reinforces the idea that God has a care for us that is deep, personal, and comprehensive.

Word of the Day: Be ready for a complete transformation
We will see changes in our situations when we embrace the help of God. God wants to give us a complete and satisfying life. But we have to learn to fight for what is important and to call upon the power of God.
‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’
Jeremiah 33:3
When you call out to God, He hears you and comes to your aid. God does not ignore your prayers but faithfully acts to answer your pleas.
Before they call I will answer;
while they are still speaking I will hear.
Isaiah 65:24
Do not think that if you do not receive an immediate answer, God has forgotten you. It is not so, changes aren't necessarily immediate. He listens to you and takes action,
Sometimes He shapes us with gentle touches. Just as the potter molds clay with patience and dedication, God molds us to become more like Him.
The important thing is that you allow Him to do His work in you. For example, if you struggle with fear, ask God to help you trust in His protective power. Call out to the Father. Fill your heart with trust. And also, allow Him to transform you every day, to give you encouragement and courage. Fill your heart more with His Spirit and let Him transform you so that you can be more like Jesus.
God can transform you in every part of your life, for example:
-
Family: God can transform the family by bringing love, forgiveness, and unity. God can heal wounds, strengthen bonds, and build a nurturing environment when we become more Christ-like, and embrace his teachings.
-
Relationships: God can transform us through his gifts of unconditional love and complete forgiveness. When we show others biblical love, respect, and selflessness, God can bring restoration, harmony, and mutual growth.
-
Work: God transforms us in the workplace by inspiring integrity, excellence, and humility. By relying on His wisdom and strength, we can approach our work with diligence, stewardship, and a servant's heart. God can also provide opportunities for growth, promotion, and using our skills to glorify Him.
-
Ministry: God brings transformation by equipping us with the fruits of the spirit, passion, and vision to serve others. He deepens our faith, compassion, and dependence on Him as we seek to fulfill His calling. Through prayer, discipleship, and obedience to His Word, God can empower us to impact lives, build His kingdom, and bring glory to His name.
