Give Up What?!?

Now It's Personal
Have you ever pondered the extent of God’s involvement in you as person? In Psalm 139:1-18, the songwriter David describes this in great detail in three parts: how much He knows you, how He is always with you, and the fact that He crafted your very being. Your picture would be on His fridge, in His wallet, or on His license plate. David describes how much God thinks about us—“How vast is the sum of them!” An appropriate response for you is to regard God as personally as personally as he regards you. Confess or declare His name publicly, verbally in your everyday life. Reciprocate His awesome love in everything you do and say.
