# 8 on the Top 10 List of Scripture // Wednesday E-Devotion

(NOTE: This E-Devotion is the continutation of the "Top 10 List of Scripture" list, verses Christians should know, share and hold on to with everything we are. Verses that will change lives, ours and others.)

# 8 on the Top 10 List of scripture

Psalm 139:17-18 (nlt)
How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. They cannot be numbered! I can't even count them; they outnumber the grains of sand! And when I wake up, you are still with me!

That makes you stop and think. God is thinking about us! You and me. He cannot get enough of us. His love....it's real and endless. His gift to us...it's real and endless. Then, His thoughts...they are real and endless, too.

In another Psalm David asks where he can get away from God. He talks about the deepest part of the ocean and the highest peak of a mountain, and in every one of those places, David admits that God is there. See Psalms 139:7-8.

Paul said at the end of Romans 8 that nothing can move us away from God's love or make God love us any more or any less. His love is constant no matter what. See Romans 8:38-39.

Do those things make a difference to you? They do for me and big time.

As we move through these 10 verses, the top 10 list, I am touched by the awesomeness of God. He is more than we can imagine and more than we can understand and just more than we will ever know. Then, this God is thinking about us all the time. That is off the hook.

The people love are the ones you think about. Same is true with God. That's big.

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you ...

wash feet, sharing hope

  John 13:4-5,14 NLT  So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5 and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him… 14 And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. Jesus set the example we follow.  He served.  He valued and gave value to others.  That is why we choose to serve. For 18 years our church has shared an outreach called back2school, and for 16 of those years we have chosen to give students brand new shoes and socks as well as washing their feet.  It is one of the most important parts of this event. Washing feet is a humbling experience where both the give and the receiver learn how to share some moments that might change their lives.  Jesus said we should do this.  See the verse above.  Follow His example, do what He did, and give far more than you will ever know....
