Scripture: for he looks throughout the whole earth
and sees everything under the heavens. Job 28:24
Thoughts: God knows. He can see everything going on in the whole earth.
Application: I admit the thought of being able to see everything makes my head spin. The attention deficit disorder in me feels the madness - the busyness of people's lives, multiplied by all the people, all the angels, and all the demons that God keeps track of. This is all intensified because He is a sinless God and has to see the evils that are being done every minute of every day all around the world.
I've only seen and heard a minute fraction, how it must break His heart to know and see everything. Although I know God is Omniscient, I never really thought about it in that term. I think about sins that Christians commit being seen by God and how that must be hard. We have accepted what Jesus did for us on the cross and still sin. I also realize God doesn't categorize sin like we do, but just the thought of what He does see, breaks my heart.
I do like that God knows and sees everything. Sometimes I feel like the people who really know me are all dead, but I've always been able to find solace in the fact that God was there with me. When I feel like no one understands where I'm coming from, God knows.
Response: Thank you Father that You know me. Thank You that You see me, and that even in the whole world You have Your eyes on me. Thank You for watching over me. Forgive me for the times I've done things that have caused You pain to see. Let me never forget that I can walk in your grace. Amen
