God's Perfect Knowledge of Us

"For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well." - Psalm 139:13-14

I spent most of today cleaning, catching up on e-mail, and playing piano. Overall, it was a good day. My bathroom is now clean, I have a few more e-mails to write, and I enjoyed time using the gift of music.

Tonight I had dinner with a visiting team. Several from the group have been here before. One of the team members is a young woman that I have spent time with in the past. We sat together at dinner and caught up, summarizing what God has been doing in our lives over the past year. Although we had that conversation about two hours ago, I have thought more on it. We talked about how sometimes we feel like we have no idea what God is doing in our lives. However, as I thought more about it, I realized that God formed us, and had a plan for us before we were even born. How awesome is that! During the times that we are in the wilderness, we can still know that God's hand is on us, guiding us in the way we should go. As it says in Isaiah, His ways are higher than our ways, and His thoughts higher than ours. Who can argue with that? It gives me great assurance knowing that nothing is out of God's control, and He knows exactly what He is doing. With that knowledge, I can rest peacefully tonight. Good night!
