    Psalm 139:1-4, "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 upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain."

    Think

    In today's day and age, information is at our fingertips through the World Wide Web. The latest news or word definition is seconds away on this seemingly all-knowing source that can answer any question with one click. But what about the Source that directs your course, your walk, and your worldview? The all-powerful Provider of ultimate truth who knows infinitely more than even the most advanced artificial intelligence could ever produce?

    This Source is living. This Source wore flesh. This Source transforms hearts and changes lives. This Source loves and adores you. This Source is JESUS! He knows your movements before you make them, words before you speak them, and thoughts before they cross your mind. He knew what you'd look like, how'd you laugh, and even the number of hairs on your head. He knew EVERYTHING about you before you were even born. Our finite minds can't even fathom the depths of His knowledge. But, remember, He knows everything about you - and, yet, He still chooses to love you!

    God is the all-knowing source that provides ultimate TRUTH to the world. He wants to be the answer to your questions, and the first you seek in times of joy and sadness. And He's always there - no clicks or keyboards needed. Instead of going to the "WWW" for insight and truth, rely on the "AKG" - All-Knowing God.

    Act

    Don't be intimidated by the fact that God knows everything about you, because He is your source of insight to guide your steps each day. Take a moment to write down "The Fabulous Five" as an encouraging reminder that, yes, God knows everything, and still chooses to love you.

    1. God knows what we do before we do.

    2. God knows what we think before we think.

    3. God knows what we say before we say.

    4. God knows where we go before we go.

    5. God knows what we need before we need it.

    Pray

    Dear God, Thank You for knowing me and still choosing to love me. As I walk in my relationship with You, help me to seek and trust in You alone. Amen.
