"Knowledge learns of God; wisdom loves Him."
(Last line from 'What is wisdom? What is the difference between wisdom and knowledge?', Got Questions? Org. http://www.gotquestions.org/wisdom-knowledge.html)
Dear God,
You are a life-giving God.
I see this in the marvellous-ness in the development of a child. I am awakened to this in the wonder of nature's beauty.
Do these lead me to worship of You? Do these lead me to say You are like no one else?
Sometimes, it does not. But in a space of time like this Wednesday morning, more importantly, in a space of time like this Wednesday morning when I turn my eyes, turn my mind, turn my spirit, to Your word - just as X Your child and Your creation, not daughter, not worker, not friend - I am reminded of the Treasure that You are.
How do I begin? Where do I begin?
That You are like no other.
Sure, You are worthy of worship.
But even before I come to that, I have to deal with allllllll that You have done for me. There is no one else like You Lord, who has loved and pursued me so that You could give me the best gift of all - the gift of belonging to You, of being redeemed by You.
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.

"there is no one like You"
I love You Lord.
I don't think I love You the way You deserve, nor in the depths and the breadths of what You deserve.
But I love being with You. I love being with You because You give me life, because You soothe my pains, because You know and understand me.
There is no one like You.
I enjoy being with You. I like singing to You, singing with You. I like recognising where You have been in other people's lives.
There is no one like You Lord.
