I think the most comforting thing in all this world God, is to know "You know me." You know when I rise and when I fall. When I come and go, You see it all. Even when I get mad and question You. Nothing is hidden from Your sight. Every detail of my life. I can place my trust in You, that whatever is allowed to come, go, or stay in my life, it has a purpose.
I love the fact that God hems me in and lays His hand upon me. So why do I sometimes have such a small view of Who God is? He knows everything about me and still loves me. Sometimes I don't even like myself. Where my thoughts may take me. How far I let my anger go. How long I may stay mad at God. How long it may take me to forgive someone. How much bitterness do I hold. Do I point fingers often? Can you relate to any of these?
I am so thankful for Jesus. And because I put my faith and trust in Him, His Spirit lives in me.
Psalm: 1-6 "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.You hem me in behind and before and you lay your hand me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain."
I lift up my eyes to the mountains where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not let your foot slip he who watches over you will not slumber; indeed, he who watches over Israel will neither slumber nor sleep. The Lord watches over you the Lord is your shade at your right hand; the sun will not harm you by day, nor the moon by night. The Lord will keep you from all harm he will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore. Psalm 121:1-8
Dear God, Thank you for loving me. You love me so much that You refuse to let me stay in any character that is not of You. Help me to be sensitive to Your Spirit so I will never willfully do anything that breaks Your heart. When I do fail You, I pray it breaks my heart quickly so I can stay on the path you have for my life. I don't want anything to break the fellowship I have with You.
