He Knows

SCRIPTURE:
For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double edge sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow, it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we mist give account. ~ Hebrews 4:12-13
OBSERVATION:
When we close our Bibles, put them up and walk away, the messages, the promises, the warnings – none of that is put away. Every word is still alive and active. It doesn’t matter if we read the NIV, NLT, ESV or KJV, whatever version, whatever language, the Words of God never rest. They penetrate inside us whether we recognize it or not. God is forever active within us and He sees everything. He knows our attitude and our motives and our heart. He knows.
APPLICATION:
God knows my heart. He knows where I long to be, He knows what I desire in my life. Sometimes I forget that when I don’t get what I want when I want it.
PRAYER:
Your Word, Lord, is amazing. I hate that sometimes I look at reading Your Word as a chore, as something to check off each day. Your Words are food to my soul. They give me encouragement and the hope I need. They remind me that You are a God of promises and of love. Thank you for choosing me.
