Job 23 - God Knows The Way

"But he knows the way that I take..." (vs 10 NIV)  God knows.  This morning, I forgot that it was Wednesday and at 8:40, after sitting around drinking coffee and reading; something triggered my memory and I realized that I needed to be at a Bible Study in 20 minutes. I made it in time, but barely! Even when we can't figure out what we're suppose to be doing, where we are heading, God knows. 

We may not be aware of His presence all of the time.  But, He is there, with us, all of the time.  And... he knows everything that we do and say and think, all the time.  Nothing can stay hidden from him.  We may try to hide the reality of ourselves from ourselves, but God knows.  He knows the way we take and He knows the way we should take and is willing to lead us in that way. If we would, but listen, we would know. 

It can be a pretty scary when we realize that even though we think we've buried our skeletons in the closet so deep that no one can find them, that there is someone who knows.  That someone is our Creator and our Redeemer.  Thanks be to God, that He was/is aware of all our darkest secrets and sent His only begotten Son that in Jesus the Christ, that in spite of the paths that we have sometimes followed, we would be found righteous on that day of judgement.

Let us give thanks that God is aware of the way we take and loves us enough to intercede, through Jesus Christ, our Lord.  Amen.

God's Peace - Pr. J
