thoughts along the way
"How precious are Your thoughts to me, O God!"
Does your soul resonate with that of the psalmist, David, as he makes this Spirit-inspired declaration in Psalm 139v17a? Are God’s thoughts truly precious to you?
I invite you to join me from time to time for some “thoughts along the way” as together we reflect on the text of Sacred Scripture, considering the precious thoughts God has revealed to us in His Holy Word.
…by His grace, and for His glory…
