I am thinking of you. - God
The sun was setting.
While glancing out the bus on my journey to church, I found my thoughts returning back to my students.
Even while the music played in my ear about Jesus, I began to think about how I want to nurture my students in an environment of love and acceptance. About how I want them to learn to love each other and to love me. I also thought about this particular girl who I feel I have neglected and I made a mental note to talk to her sometime soon about her emotion management.....
And so, I found myself thinking about my students 24/7. I care for them too much such that it is almost taking over my life...
But, suddenly, at that instant, I thought about God.
If I, with my limited and imperfect love, find myself thinking about my students 24/7, what about God?
I must be in His thoughts 24/7 too.
And not just me, but you as well. Every one of us - is in His thoughts 24/7. He never stops thinking about us because, with His perfect love, He loves us so so much.
Me, in God's thoughts 24/7.
I almost blushed at that thought.
What a marvelous, loving thought as Sabbath approaches. :)

It really is a comforting thought to mention it like that..just take it for granted most of the times because I don't relfect enough..need more practice, need to keep growing, need to keep learning...
