A Billion Blessings

There are more than a billion stars in the universe. Some are clearly visible, some are hard to see, and others can only be viewed with a powerful telescope. Yet, God knows each one of them by name.

There are more than a billion people scattered across the planet. They have a variety of features, characteristics and skin colors. They speak different languages, wear different types of clothing, and have different customs. God knows each one of them by name, too.

There are more than a billion blessings that Jesus Christ pours out. The Lord God brings out the sun and waters the earth. He sets the moon and stars in place. He provides plants and animals for food, fiber and clothing. He strengthens, restores, and watches over those who seek Him. He shields, protects, and delivers those who cry out to Him. He teaches, guides, and equips those who ask for wisdom and walk in His ways. He walks with, talks to, and takes delight in those who love Him. He offers the gift of salvation to all who are willing to accept.

How awesome is our God who blesses in a billion different ways! How great is the Lord God Almighty!
