The mind of God is so beautiful in the way He sees the world and those who dwell upon it! He views us as more than just people walking the earth. We are compared to vines,tree’s,flower’s,sheep,grasshopper’s and vice versa He compares the animal’s to people.
When we go through the earth with His word the Lord says we will go out with joy, and be led forth with peace. The hills will sing and the tree’s will clap their hands. What a picture He has painted here for us to behold (Isaiah 55:10-13) For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands. Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
God sits upon the circle of the earth and sees us as grasshopper’s,this sure gives us a gauge of just how small we are yet we are loved so much by Him!(Isaiah 40:22-25) Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth? It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in: That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity. Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall take them away as stubble. To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One.
Our life is but a vapour and we are viewed as grass that withers and a flower which fades away. It is in the memories of our loved ones we go on to live for a time til we too become a memory!(Isaiah 40:5-8) And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it. The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field: The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever. (1 Peter 1:24,25).
The other side of Gods wonderful imagination is how He compares the animals to people (Proverbs 30:25-28) The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer; The conies are but a feeble folk, yet make they their houses in the rocks; The locusts have no king, yet go they forth all of them by bands; The spider taketh hold with her hands, and is in kings’ palaces.

Thinking how big the universe is, even immeasurable, yet God loves me the tiny I am walking in this vast space. Amazing writing, Julia!
Your comment Hazel brings to mind how God sees us as grasshopper’s. (Isaiah 40:22). Good to hear you enjoyed this post.
May you be Blessed in your walk with the Lord
