God's Thoughts

For the last couple of days I have been giving my thoughts about the New Year.  Today David writes in Psalm 139:17-18 about God's thoughts.  God has a view of you.  He looks at you as His children.  He looks at us through the eyes of love.  If we know Jesus Christ than He looks at us through the blood of Jesus Christ.  I am so glad for redemption and all it brings.  There is nothing more wonderful to know that you are child of God.  His thoughts toward us are one of peace, joy and love.  He has given us a hope and a future.  He brings in our lives His power and promises.  All these wonderful benefits were brought to us because of the broken body and shed blood of Jesus Christ.  Jesus allowed Himself to be be crucified, buried and to rise again so you and I could have this wonderful eternal and abundant life.  Jesus came to set the captives free which  all of us were once.  Now we are children of God.  Today as this day plays it self out, grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ and serve Him will all your heart.  Look for opportunities to do His will and follow His plans for your life.
