He thinks about you all the time. If you could collect each thought in your hands and count them – it would be like trying count the grains of sand on the beach. So, you couldn’t if you tried.
And what type of thoughts does He think? He says they are precious and rare. Every one of these thoughts, that outnumber the sand, are loving and deep and beautiful. Every. Single. One.
So even on your worst day, His thoughts of you are precious. Do you believe it? I’m praying it digs down deep in your soul today.

“How precious also are They thoughts to me, O God!How vast is the sum of them! If I could could count them, they would outnumber the sand…”Psalm 139:17,18
Psalm 139 is one of my favorite verses. It really helps me to understand that I was made with a purpose and there is a God who loves me.
I don’t think I’ve ever considered the fact that God thinks about me. Of course, I know in my “knower” that He does, but to consider how often and when He thinks of me is rather stunning and makes me feel loved and treasures in a whole new way.
Isn’t that an amazing thought to dwell on? Praying for you Lisa!
It is amazing but until I read this I really never thought of the fact that God thinks about me outside of our prayer time. This is what a busy day will do to you! 🙂 But it is an amazing and comforting thought to know this. And I feel a warm sense of love when I think that even on my worse days his thoughts of me are precious. Thanks for this beautiful reflection, Stacey.
Maria, it is true and you can believe it, dwell on it and let it sink down deep today!
Wow,this just brought tears to my eyes!

I am so excited to be joining your “31 days of what God wants {me} you to know”. I won’t go into great detail about my families past year – otherwise this could be a lengthy comment, but I will just let you know that it has brought me exactly to this place, the place where I want to seek only Him & what He wants for my life. I will pray for you Stacey, as you share from your heart this month. Thank you for doing this. –cami

Hey Abby! Love that we are on the same page. I can’t wait to read more on your blog!
How encouraging to read. I can almost hear my Father saying those words to me Himself.
Thank you!
This brings me such peace tonight! The beautiful ocean sunset and contemplating God’s thoughts toward me are precious. Always? He’s never shaking His finger at me or disappointed in my choices? I really need to drink in His precious thoughts towards me.
Thank you, Stacey.
