Grains of Sand
I have a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that the God of the universe thinks of me everyday. It's an amazing truth that gets more astounding as you dive deeper into it! Our Heavenly Father is a personal God. He is the God that knows the exact number of hairs on our heads (Matthew 10:30) and the God who knit us together in our mother's womb (Psalm 139:13), crafting our very being. God's thoughts toward us outnumber the grains of sand (Psalm 139:17-18). According to the University of Hawaii, the number of grains of sand on all beaches is... seven quintillion, five hundred quadrillion, which is 75 with 17 zeros following!!!! Now that is not even counting the grains of sand making up the ocean floor, and considering how BIG the ocean is...that's a lot of sand! ...And the Bible says God's thoughts towards us outnumber the grains of sand! We are constantly on God's mind. Day after day He supports us, carries us, and bears our burdens. Worrying sounds silly to me, when I think of how MUCH I personally matter to God!
