I’m lying in bed thinking about how blessed I am and how great my life is. I am completely overjoyed and it makes sense. I get to serve the creator of the universe. I’m a child of our savior!! I am loved so deeply by the most important being in all of creation. God’s love is so deep and nothing can separate me from it.

 

WHAT?!?!?!?! Mind blown!!!!

 

I’m sitting here in tears, overwhelmed by his love. And still my mind can’t grasp the concept:

 

How can a measly human, out of billions on this planet, praise Him and give Him the glory He deserves? How can I, one person, really make a difference? Why did he choose me? Why does he trust me? Why does he continue to overwhelm me with blessings that I don’t deserve?

 

I want to see the bigger picture. I know I will never fully understand God’s plans. I will never fully live correctly in His eyes. I will never comprehend His deep, unfailing love, His great compassion and undeniable mercy. I will never fully understand His divine nature. I know that I am not created to understand those things but He has made me special. He has made me courageous and fearless. He has made me beautifully and wonderfully, but most of all, He lives in me, in my inmost being. He makes my life worth living. I NEED Him!! I need Him in every aspect of my life. I yearn for His presence. And with his presence I am strong and able to do what He has called me to do.

 

You hem me in; behind and before

You have laid your hand upon me

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me

Too lofty for me to attain

 Psalm 139:5-6
