God is always mindful of his people even when they are asleep. He never slumbers or sleeps. He knows all of our needs and will meet them. He is the God of all grace. All things are under His control. All power in heaven and earth is belongs to him.
Jesus thought of you before the cross.
He thought of you as he prayed. In the garden of Gethsemane, his soul was exceedingly sorrowful even unto death as he thought of you, and the price he was going to have to pay for your sins.
Jesus thought of you while on the cross.
Jesus thought of you as his blood poured out from the nails in his hands and feet, from his back opened by the whip, and from his head as the crown of thorns dug into his scalp. He was in agony and his sweat was as if were great drops of blood falling to the ground. He thought of you as they stripped him naked and cast lots for his garments so that you could be clothed with His righteousness.
Jesus thought of you after the cross.
We often do not know our own thoughts, nor know our own mind, but God is never at any uncertainty within himself. We are sometimes ready to fear that God's designs concerning us are all against us; but he knows the contrary concerning his own people. He thought of you and loved you even before you were born, and will love you until the end of time -- throughout eternity. You are never out of His mind.
Jesus sits on the throne of God in heaven.
He is praying for you that you might be saved.
