This wonderful yet incomprehensible realization motivates me to worship Christ anew with greater passion and fervor. For how is it possible that an ordinary sinner like me could ever be of any consequence to the Creator and Sustainer of the universe? And yet I know that His Word is TRUE: I belong to Him and He belongs to me. I fall on my knees and cry, "Holy"...

It gets me thinking in the right direction, I can't wait to explore it more and see where this goes. It is great how looking at a common verse from a different angle can open up such excellent new vistas. It was Dr. Bean who used to say, "Ask first, 'What does this text say about God?'", and you have done it here where it is easy to miss. Thanks. Steve Hey Doug,
