Psalm 138:1-8; Psalm 139:1-24; Psalm 145:1-21; 2 Samuel 21:1-14; 2 Samuel 9:1-13; Psalm 8:1-9;

God knows me better than I know myself. I feel blessed whenever I consider the Lord.  (Psalm 139)

The Lord is righteous in all his ways 
   and loving toward all he has made.
The Lord is near to all who call on him, 
   to all who call on him in truth.
He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; 
   he hears their cry and saves them.
The Lord watches over all who love him, 
   but all the wicked he will destroy.
My mouth will speak in praise of the Lord. 
   Let every creature praise his holy name for ever and ever.
(Psalm 145:17-21)

Love is the character of God's connection with all things God creates. We who love God in response are "watched over" by God. Praises well up in me, as I recall, consider, and meditate on such miracles and mysteries.
