“Our Lord is great, and mighty in power, His wisdom is beyond measure!” — Psalm 146:5

Sometimes, due to chronic pain and constant fatigue, I find myself confined within four walls. On such days I feel unbearable loneliness. Then it seems that neither people nor God care about me. One day during a morning prayer walk with my specially trained dog, I was struggling with these feelings when I suddenly saw a large balloon in the distance. People in the basket enjoyed a bird’s-eye view of our area. Of course, they couldn’t see me. Walking along the neighboring houses, I sighed. How many people behind these doors also feel insignificant and useless! At the end of the walk, I asked God to give me the opportunity to tell my neighbors that I know them and I don’t care what happens to them. Just like Him.

God determined the exact number of stars He decided to create. He gave each of them a name (Ps. 146:4). This showed His attention to the smallest details. His power and wisdom are immeasurable (v. 5).

God hears our prayers and sees every tear as clearly as every happy smile. He knows when we stumble and when we celebrate victory. He understands our deepest fears, secret thoughts and wildest dreams. He knows where we came from and where we are going. It is He who helps us to see, hear and appreciate our neighbors. Therefore, we know that He loves, understands and supports us.

How did your neighbors treat you well? What good deed can you do for them today?

God, help me to see, hear and love others in word and deed.
