known

Oh yes, you shaped me first inside, then out;
you formed me in my mother's womb.
I thank you, High God—you're breathtaking!
Body and soul, I am marvelously made!
I worship in adoration—what a creation!
You know me inside and out,
you know every bone in my body;
You know exactly how I was made, bit by bit,
how I was sculpted from nothing into something.
Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth;
all the stages of my life were spread out before you,
The days of my life all prepared
before I'd even lived one day.

Psalm 139: 13-16

Today, I had the opportunity to spend some time with this verse. I asked God, before I began, to illuminate what He wanted me to see. The words that jumped off the page to me were “You know me….”. I had read this passage numerous times over the years. This is something I’ve known in my head for a long time but today, I knew it in my heart. He knows everything about me. All the good and all the bad.

What really stuck me is that if God knows me that intimately, how can I not trust Him? Sometimes I think I trust Him more with the big things but struggle trusting Him with the small things. I want to trust Him with everything.

Where are you with trusting Him? Do you say you trust Him but live out something different? If you know that He knows and loves you so much…He wants only the best for you….consider trusting Him with all that you have and with all that you are.

Grace and peace,
Deb
