Mindfulness

President Obama made a declaration that he would "stay in touch" with the people when he entered into office in 2008. In doing so, he made a bold pledge; to read ten letters a day from American's. Why only "ten" a day, you might ask? Well…..if you received approximately 65,000 letters, 100,000 emails, 1,000 faxes and 2,500-3,500 phone calls a day, "ten a day" might sound more doable and focused.

"But there is a place where someone has testified: "What is mankind that you are mindful of them, a son of man that you care for him?" Hebrews 2:6

Can we only imagine how many prayers God receives, daily? I'm certain the number is too high of a count for our imagination. So how can God be truly mindful of us, our needs and our individual lives? Amazingly, He just can……because He's God. The intimacy God desires with us is nothing compared to a President's genuine concern for the people of his country. A president is just a man trying to understand us, from a small sampling of people. God is creator of the universe trying to help us understand Him and His genuine love and compassion for us.

Thought to live by: As inconceivable as it may seem…..God is mindful of me.
