Thoughts in Worship

Message Magazine's Online Devotional for Thursday, April 2, 2015

Based Upon Isaiah 43:7

-

The Most High God created you for His glory. This means that when He formed you, He had only the brightest, most honorable thoughts in mind. There is no good thing that He would withhold from those who love Him. While it is true that we have all made horrible mistakes that have placed us outside His ideal for us, and so many have even actively disobeyed His will, His thoughts toward us have not changed. He has thoughts of peace and not of evil. He has thoughts of love and not of fear. He has thoughts of our happiness and not our anxiety. He has thoughts of eternity with us and not of our destruction. It's about time that we get with His program and embrace His thoughts toward us. The great thing about this is that as we embrace His thoughts toward us, and accept His love by faith, He makes us into new creatures. We can surrender our past to Him, and He will guarantee our future.—L. David Harris (www.davidwritesalot.com)
