I cannot hide from You.

I cannot hide from You.

That's the name of a certain song that has recently been stuck in my mind. The song, sung by Greg Long, has really been an encouragement and yet a challenge to me.

God sees and knows everything we do, say, or think. In a way, that statement can be convicting. Being a sinful human being there are some things that I don't want God to know about. But He does, and I have to my best to remember that.

On the other hand, to know that God is always there, always, is such an awesome feeling! There's no place I can go, where God can't be to pick me up. To guide me. To love me.

And really, that's what it's all about. His love for us.

John 3:16 - "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life."

He wants to be there for us. He is there for us. He always will be there for us.

I cannot hide from You,
You know me all too well,
There's no story of my life that Your memory could not tell,
 I can ride the morning wings till I'm completely out of view,
But whether in dark or light,
I cannot hide from You.

God loves us. It's evident. Just as a parent that loves their child and makes sure to know where and what they are doing, so our Father keeps track of us.

We can't hide from Him. No matter what. He created you, and He loves you.

Are you trying to hide from God?

It's my prayer that we all remain aware that God is omniscient (all knowing). He knows about everything.

Be thankful for that.
