Before you were born, I knew you by name; before you turned toward Me, I called to you; before you set your heart to seek me, My heart was seeking yours; before you turned your thoughts toward Me, My thoughts were turned toward you; before you set your love upon Me, My love was set upon you; before you came to Me, I ran to you; before you called me Abba, Father, I called you My child.
“I am poor and needy; Yet the LORD thinks upon me.“ Psalm 40:17 (NKJV)
“How comforting the promise of His abiding thoughtfulness.”—Charles P. Wiles
