GOD KNOWS

I didn’t know that school and exams could take my attention away from blogging for a while, but it didn’t stop me from writing blissful articles to share here. On the first day of my exams, I had a thought-provoking moment. I was prepared for my exam, but I had been hit hard by stress from the previous weeks. I was angry about the situation, and I just had to rant to God about how tired I was. However, I quickly changed the subject and became positive as I felt guilty for doubting God in the first place.

After I wrote my exam, it really hit me – the fact that God knows. Like, He actually knows. It sounds plain, right? But God knows what you’re about to say before you even come to His presence, and yet He still listens to what you have to say. To me, it’s incredibly cool and has so much warmth to it. That pain, that feeling, that excitement – He knows it all.

Jesus knows us fully. He knows our strengths and weaknesses, our family history, our biological makeup, and our worldview. He knows every nook and cranny of us. He knows us better than we know ourselves. And He also knows suffering on an intense, personal level. He knows what it feels like to be happy and excited – everything we feel, He knows!

Jeremiah 1:5 says, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”

When we face life’s challenges, we often conclude that God is unaware of what we’re going through or that He cannot see the magnitude of our struggles. But is this really true? Is God oblivious to our pain? Absolutely not. God is fully aware of everything we experience. If He knows the number of hairs on our heads, then He surely knows the details of our lives and the difficulties we face.

Always remember that God sees and knows your situation. He desires to demonstrate His power on your behalf, but it requires your faith. Faith, not emotions or complaints, is what moves God and activates His power. Be encouraged today to rise up, put your faith to work, and do what is needed.

STAY BLESSED.
