Psalms 139: 16-18

16 You saw me before I was born. Every day of my life was recorded in your book. Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed. 17 How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! 18 I can’t even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!

do we really imagine our lives are already recorded in God's book of life? I don't think we do.. if we did.. why do we imagine that things will not work out? I mean realistically.. they may not work out as we desire.. but they will still work out to the best for all involved... if you think about the people who have come and gone in your life and how we tried sometimes to hold on to them.. maybe if we had been able to keep on to them.. they or you.. would never have taken the road you should have taken... what if we were able to get rid of people that we see as an annoyance.. possibly we would not have been changed and shaped by their abrasive personality... sometimes I cannot see the day before me.. sometimes I have completely forgotten in my eye the picture of the future God has spoken to me about... those are the days that I think I must not be praying right... I must not be asking in the right manner.. maybe I should be fasting and sacrificing... maybe I never saw what I thought I saw... some days we think God doesn't see our pain or our frustration.. we think that maybe He doesn't care.. we can't hear Him sometimes.. His voice is muffled..

if we really accepted that God already has written out what will happen.. if we accept that His will is already set.. that we will walk into it when it is right.. then all this frustration could possibly be avoided...

how precious are His thoughts about me.. they cannot be numbered.. the idea that all the time.. God is in heaven thinking great thoughts about us... what a picture that is... what an amazing idea... yet here we are.. thinking God has forgotten us.. thinking God is not going to work our situation out... disillusioned by what we see... dishearted by what we hear...

today is a new day... believe.. speak.. walk.. in the truth of God's word.. believe He has already worked your situation out.. speak that He is sitting on the throne.. thinking about how much He loves you... walk in the truth of God's word...
