Monday, 9/29/2014 - Mindful of You Todays Devotion: September 29 Mindful of You When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him? Psalm 8:3-4a Recommended Reading Psalm 111:1-9 When the ancients looked up at the heavens, they didn’t know what they were seeing. We may know more about the universe than they did, but we still know relatively little. The observable universe is thought to be 92 billion light-years in diameter—and one light-year is 6 trillion miles. So do the math: 92 billion times 6 trillion equals . . . well, it equals a long way from one side of the observable universe to the other. And what about the unobservable part? Based just on what they saw and understood of the heavens, the ancient biblical writers were overwhelmed with their smallness measured against its immensity. And they were amazed that God invested time and attention in them. When we have problems in life, they seem very large—and they are. But when we consider that God is powerful enough to have created the universe, we realize He is more than capable of meeting our needs. God cares about you and your needs. Bring them to Him in a spirit of worship and thanksgiving, knowing that He is mindful of your place in His creation. The vast majority of mankind never gives a thought of gratitude towards God for all His care and blessings. Donald Grey Barnhouse Read-thru-the-Bible Zechariah 6 – 10 © 2014 Turning Point
