Psalms 139:17 KJV
How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them!
These are the thoughts God has. The Psalmist say that the thoughts of God are precious to him.
Jer 29:11 (KJV)
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
That God has thoughts toward us is humbling. That those thoughts are good thoughts and not evil is supremely joyous.
John Gill
God's thoughts are infinitely beyond ours, and infinitely more valuable and more important, and are concerning our welfare and happiness:
C H Spurgeon
He thinks upon God's thoughts with delight; the more of them the better he is pleased. It is a joy worth worlds that the Lord should think upon us who are so poor and needy it is a joy which fills our whole nature to think upon God; returning love for love, thought for thought, after our poor fashion
I only know one source to learn God's thoughts; so this must be a reference to the very Word of God. And the Psalmist says from this Word he learns more of God's thoughts than he can even number. How rich and wonderful is God that He should give us this blessed book from which to know His thoughts. How we should delight in those thoughts written therein!
