You
have searched me, LORD, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, LORD,
know it completely. Psalm 139:1-4
Thoughts ~
When my children were very
small, they loved playing hide and seek with me. I loved seeing their little feet sticking out
from behind a curtain or hear them giggling as I got close. They seemed to
think if they couldn’t see me, then certainly I couldn’t see them.
Even though I can’t see the
Lord, I know He can see me. And not just
see my exterior but see my heart and mind.
He knows the whole essence of who I am and I cannot hide anything at all
from Him. He knows my thoughts before I speak them. And so, knowing this has
helped my prayer life, my spiritual walk and the way I live my life.
My prayer life is honest. I
tell the Lord absolutely everything. My walk is more consistent because I know
He sees my steps. My lifestyle choices involve decisions I know He would want
me to make. He may have billions of people to watch over, but I am aware I can
never hide myself from Him.
Action ~
Think about some ways you
might be “hiding” from the Lord. Are you mentally covering your ears to what He
has to say to you?
Pray ~
Father, thank You for loving
me even though You know the real me more than anyone else does. I love you.
Trusting in Him,
Becky
