I looked at my husband at a point today and said, “Can you read my mind?”, to which he replied, “Can you read mine?”. We both ended up chuckling because we in fact knew what the other was thinking.
Some days I make it hard on my sweet husband though.
I don’t even know what I’m thinking or what I want and/or need, so I can’t expect him to know.
There are things that I do know about myself. My favorite season is Autumn, my middle name is Kristen, I love passion fruit and chocolate. Random things like that…
But some days I learn new things about myself that I didn’t know before. Often this comes from times spent in my husband’s company or in a conversation with a friend.
Mostly I learn more about myself by spending time with my Father.
He after all is the One Who created me and knows me for who I really am.
He isn’t guessing, assuming, or basing His assessment on perceived information.
He knows the facts about me. He knows me.
AND…He knows you.
Better than you know yourself.
He knows the good, the bad, the GREAT, aaaaaaand the ugly.
He knows the plans that He created you to walk in and the unique traits, personality quirks, and giftings inside of you.
When you spend time seeking Him and desiring His will for your life, He’ll reveal the best for your life and in the process you’ll learn His heart.
Question(s) of the day:
Do we really believe that He knows us better than anyone else?
What ways do we believe other voices including ourselves over His truth?
What can we do to listen to His voice and truth in our lives?
Scripture(s) of the day:
Ps 139: 1 You have searched me, LORD, and you know me.
Song of the day:
You Know Me–by–Steffany Frizzell Gretzinger
“And nothing is hidden from Your sight
Wherever I go, You find me
And You know every detail of my life
And You are God and You don’t miss a thing”
