Proverbs 17:3 The fining pot is for silver, and the furnace for gold: but the LORD tries the hearts.

      Dr. Seuss: “Today you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than you.”
     I recently had a wonderful experience at the cardiologist when they took an Echo Doppler Ultrasound of my heart and explained everything that was happening on the monitor. There it was in Doppler color; my heart in full motion and operation as the Lord had created it. How can anyone not believe in God when watching such an incredible living organism pumping away at the rhythm of God’s delight? What fool says in his heart “There is no God,” when looking at God’s genius at work. Psalm 139:14 I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made: marvellous are thy works; and that my soul knows right well. 
      The technician allowed me to hear the blood flowing through the different valves as the blood proceeded in and out of my heart. It was a sound of motion and life. Each vein had a different rhythm, beat and flow creating a crescendo of song; praising the creator. What can I say, I was impressed! I could have sworn it sounded like the Holy Spirit was mixing and moving the sounds around like a modern DJ creating a CD that only God and I could groove to. The song was saying “♪♫ I made you you ♪ and no one is like you ♫ ♪.” Jer. 1:5a Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou came forth out of the womb I sanctified thee. 
      As I watched and listened to my heart, I became very happy to be who God made me to be. In the words of that great American philosopher Popeye, “I am what I am.” I am a unique created being and was created for the Lord’s pleasure. Rev 4:11 You are worthy, O Lord our God, to receive glory and honor and power. For you created all things, and they exist because you created what you pleased.
     What an ocean of time that has been wasted by people wishing they were someone else. We are all as unique as our own fingerprint. God knows each one of us right down to the smallest molecule of our being. God has a name for us that is as individual as He created us to be, and we will know that name and be known by that name throughout eternity. Rev. 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives it. I am in Christ and He is in me. What a sound that makes in this earth.
      No wonder King David was in awe of God’s attention toward mankind. Psalm 8:3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained; 4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that you visit him? 
      God’s attention to detail within our lives is an expression of His love for us. How do we know that? We know that because there is nothing that can separate us from His love. Rom.8:38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, 39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. You are and I am the apple of God’s eye and there is nothing that can stop the Lord from loving us as uniquely as He created us to be. 
      Dr. Caroline Leaf is a cognitive neuroscientist with a PhD in Communication Pathology specializing in Neuropsychology. She says that our uniqueness is so amazing in God because no two people on the planet are the same and no two people actually think the same. Our own individual thinking is unique to us in dimension, understanding and flavor.
      We are unique in God and there is no other relationship on earth like the one we have with Him. It is true, we all need salvation through His Son Jesus Christ and that is for all man to receive freely so that we can be the unique character He created us to be. We will all find ourselves when we look for ourselves in Jesus Christ because that is where we were meant to be. Living large in humility with and in our God. Wow! Praise the Lord. 
      Every since the ultrasound, I sometimes feel my pulse and I smile and say, “Listen Lord, my heart panteth after thee.” Acts 17:28 For in Him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also His offspring. Everyone, please, rejoice in who you are. Blessings.
      Dr. Seuss:  “To the world you may be one person; but to one person you may be the world.”

Ironies To Contemplate

Anger Is Expensive 

Proverbs 16:32 He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.         In the early 1980s, while attending Bible college and living in Australia, I ministered in prisons for a few years. A common regret among...

Choose Your Hard

Matthew 11:29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. No matter what people say, life is hard. Some have it much harder than others, but overall, for most of the world's population, life is...

Make Your Bed

Acts 9:33 There he found a certain man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden eight years and was paralyzed. 34 And Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus the Christ heals you. Arise and make your bed.” Then he arose immediately.         I heard Derek Prince say, "The voice...

You Can’t Say That!

Matthew 10:19 But when they hand you over, do not worry about how to respond or what to say. In that hour you will be given what to say. My pronouns are The Redeemed of the Lord, and The Righteousness of God through Christ Jesus. You can call me that anytime you want....

A Useful Idiot

Ezekiel 28:18 By the multitude of your iniquities, with the injustice of your trading, you have profaned your holy places. And I have brought forth fire from your midst; it has devoured you, and I have given you to ashes upon the earth, before the eyes of all those...

The Low Hum Of Dread

Joshua 2:10 For we have heard how the LORD dried up the waters of the Red Sea before you when you came out of Egypt, and what you did to Sihon and Og, the two kings of the Amorites across the Jordan, whom you devoted to destruction. 11 When we heard this, our hearts...

That’s A Lot Of Faith

Acts 19:19 Also, many of those who had practiced magic brought their books together and burned them in the sight of all. And they counted up the value of them, and it totalled fifty thousand pieces of silver.         When God gets hold of a person's heart, there is...

Christianism Falls Short

Galatians 1:8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a curse!       Christianism generally refers to the use of Christian principles as a political ideology. This is why Christianism does...

Keep Breathing 

Genesis 2:7 Then the LORD God formed the man from the dust of the ground. He breathed the breath of life into the man’s nostrils, and the man became a living person.         My friend Glennis asked her hundred-year-old grandfather what the secret to longevity was. He...

Living Loving Laughing 

Daniel 5:5 In the same hour, the fingers of a man’s hand appeared and wrote opposite the lampstand on the plaster of the wall of the king’s palace; and the king saw the part of the hand that wrote. 6 Then the king’s countenance changed, and his thoughts troubled him,...

Adjusting To Chaos 

Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.         Those who have found themselves easily adjusting to chaos, led by...

And Then What?

Matthew 16:26 What will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? If I could have that amount in my bank account, then I could... If I owned that property, then I could.... If I had all that...
