God Knows Our Thoughts….

Knowing God knows our thoughts can bring about mixed emotions. It can make us feel vulnerable, knowing He knows before we do. It can make us feel guilty, knowing He knows every thought. It can make us feel nothing, taking for granted that He knows but have no immediate consequences. And lastly, it can bring comfort knowing that He is in control, and can help us manage our thoughts when we don’t like them. God knows everything; the beginning from the end. Knowing this, we can either embrace it and trust Him to help us, or see it as an infirmity and fight it the rest of our lives. God doesn’t change, so that only leaves us with one option: our attitude has to change. If God is important in your life, then you know what the right response will be (embracing it with gratitude). If God isn’t important to you, then continue living the way you’ve always been living, and continue to hope things will change. God knows our thoughts, even before they enter into our minds, and that means He knows us better than we know ourselves. If we want to truly know ourselves, then getting to know God is the surest way to achieve this goal. Know God, know yourself. No God, no peace.

5 Then the Spirit of the Lord came upon me, and He told me to say, “This is what the Lord says to the people of Israel: I know what you are saying, for I know every thought that comes into your minds. Ezekiel 11:5
