Without Number

Jeremiah 33:22: “As the host of heaven cannot be numbered, neither the sand of the sea measured: so will I multiply the seed of David my servant, and the Levites that minister unto me.”

I remember in August 1997, after visiting my sick grandfather, that I was walking home next door. It seemed that night that the stars were shining brighter than I had ever seen before. There were so many as far as the eye could see. There was no way I could even begin to count them. I have heard it said that the darker the night, the brighter the stars shine. That night will be forever etched into my memory. It was not long after that night that the Good Lord took my grandfather to his heavenly home. My grandfather lived to be 82 years young. I remember one time as we sat talking that he reached in his well-worn wallet and took out a dime that his mother had given him many years ago. He told me to look at the year that the dime was made in, and it was the year that he had been born. I was so awed by that. He had kept it all these years. Just a dime doesn’t go far these days. But when you place such sentimental value on it, it has great worth.

What is the most valuable thing that you own? Guess what? It all belongs to God, and He has blessed you with it. How much do you have to be thankful for today? Are the blessings so great that they could be without number?

If you show God your love, then you are showing your gratitude to Him. You also show your love to God by showing others His love.

This would be a good day to stop and take time to give thanks to God for all your many blessings. He is so worthy of our heartfelt thanks!

Psalm 34:1-3: “I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.”
