Today was a good day.

I prayed yesterday that the Lord would give me times in the word with Him that were fruitful and that they would be quality times, not quantity. He did just that today and it was so wonderful.

I read Psalm 33 and 1 Peter 5 and it was wonderful.

It was the perfect setting. Sitting on a couch with friends next to me. coffee in hand. music playing in the background. the sound of people around me in the coffee shop. and my journal.

I opened Psalms and one of the first things that caught my eye was this, “he who fashions the hearts of them all and observes all their deeds.” (Psalm 33:15 ESV)

The word FASHIONS stuck out to me. The word fashions is not a normal word. It has so much meaning and depth. The word infers so much more than make or create, but rather that there was detail and thought put into it. I looked up the word fashion and it said to “make into a particular or the required form.” This infers detail. This infers thought and creativity. It is not something that is just thrown together. It is meticulously thought through and designed.

Something else that struck me about this passage was the verses prior to this one. Verses 1-11 talk about how great and big the Lord is. They talk about how powerful and great he is. Verse six speaks of how mighty the Lord is: “By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host.”

The huge, mighty, powerful, wonderful, and great God who in his own power can create by his very breath takes the time, detail, and creativity to fashion my heart.

wow.

This is mind-blowing.
