This is so true. I think of many many posts that were written and are now gathering dust in the archives that could, and should, be published.

Your kindness is always appreciated, Elder...
It has been on my mind and heart for several days now that I sometimes forget to remember that I am precisely and exactly made.
Everything God ever designed was with such exactness and care, Raven.
Think about the ark that Noah built...the directions were explicit, leaving nothing to chance or guesswork.
"Make it out of this kind of wood and so many cubits high..." and on and on.
And what of the Tabernacle and the detailed instructions given for it?! God was SO precise in what He wanted done and how it was to be done.
The Ark of the Covenant, which represented the presence of God, with the Word inside and under the Mercy Seat, with the cheribums on each side...such detail.
If God took such care with these things and more, what care won't He show with the ones who are made in His image and likeness?!

He saw me in His likeness
He saw me just like Him...
He didn't see me depressed and oppressed.
He didn't see me living a defeated existence.
He didn't see me fearful and stumbling in darkness.
He saw me just like Him...
He saw me clean, pure, and holy.
He saw me walking and operating in victory.
He saw me receiving the abundance from His storehouse.
He saw me fruitful and faithful.
Praise God for His foreknowledge of what I could be...

Bro. OA the first time I read and memorized that scripture I thought it was the greatest scripture in the Bible. Lord help my words to be fitly spoken.

And he gave men the knowledge to become architects, silversmiths, and goldsmiths, to be miners to get the gems out of the earth. They didn't go to school to learn, God expressly gave them the knowledge to build His Tabernacle.

Amen!!
Without formal education...education as we know it, He divinely instructed and gave them the knowledge of how to best complete the task.
Consider the Pyramids or the Great Wall of China and what it took for these wonders to be built.
God showed the 'uneducated' how to perform great things, and all for His glory.
He is precise in all His ways.

Yes, I believe the scripture says that God put into their minds how to do these things. Man did not think this up on their own. God actually put everything together to build His house. That to me is truly amazing.

Yes, it is...and if He would show them what to do and how to do such fantastic things, what will He show us?!
What great and marvelous things does He want to do for us and through us?!
