Devotions with Pastor Jared Ritchey

The heart is a miraculous thing. In the grand scheme of things, it’s fairly small, roughly the size of your fist. However, this little thing is quite possibly the most important part of your body. If it’s not doing its job properly, nothing in the rest of your body can do its job either. As miraculous and powerful as the heart is, everything in our body is designed to work together. God knew exactly what He was doing when he designed us!

In Psalm 139:13-18, David praises God by saying this: “For it was you who created my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will praise you because I have been remarkably and wondrously made. Your works are wondrous, and I know this very well. My bones were not hidden from you when I was made in secret, when I was formed in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw me when I was formless; all my days were written in your book and planned before a single one of them began. God, how precious your thoughts are to me; how vast their sum is! If I counted them, they would outnumber the grains of the sand; when I wake up, I am still with you.”

God not only took great care in designing every one of us, even to our smallest and most important parts, but he cares about us enough to continue to care about us and His thoughts outnumber the grains of sand!

How great is our God!
