I Know You. I Am With You.

I know everything about you.
Everything. Yes, everything.
And look, I am still here. I'm still here even though I know everything about you.
So rest.
Rest and know that even as I search you and know you,
I fully and completely accept you.For you are covered in the beautiful crimson tide. You are hidden in My Son.
And therefore, I can not have a bad thought toward you,
for you are clean. You are holy in My sight.

And now you can feel free to be yourself, darling.
No proving yourself. No trying to achieve favor.
For, you are already in favor with Me! You are highly esteemed in My sight!
Not by your own works, but by grace. And that is how it will be even into eternity.
No man will boast and say they entered by their own good deeds. No, NOT ONE.
All will point to the Lamb and all will know that He is the reason they are there.
What a beautiful sight to behold! For they are wrapped up in forgiveness and
thankfulness will forever be on their lips! What a beautiful sight to behold!

So come, darling.
Don't linger in the shadows as if I can't see you there.
Darkness is as light to Me. I see you wherever you are, wherever you go.
Don't believe the lies that I can not see you down there in the pit. I see you
and I know you! I am with you there, but will not leave you there. I pull you
UP and OUT as you agree to come with Me.

And why think I can't see you up in the heights? Why think that somehow you can
fly far away from Me unnoticed? I see you there too, child. You can never escape My
Spirit. For My Spirit soars high and low, east and west. He is as the wind, unseen and
everywhere.

So come back to Me, darling. Come back to where you belong --
fully seen, fully known, fully forgiven, fully accepted, fully Mine.

***

O Lord, you have examined my heart
and know everything about me.
You know when I sit down or stand up.
You know my thoughts even when I’m far away.
You see me when I travel and when I rest at home.
You know everything I do.
You know what I am going to say even before I say it, Lord.
You go before me and follow me.
You place your hand of blessing on my head.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too great for me to understand!

I can never escape from your Spirit!
I can never get away from your presence!
If I go up to heaven, you are there;
if I go down to the grave, you are there.
If I ride the wings of the morning,
if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
even there your hand will guide me,
and your strength will support me.
I could ask the darkness to hide me
and the light around me to become night—
but even in darkness I cannot hide from you.
To you the night shines as bright as day.
Darkness and light are the same to you.

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body
and knit me together in my mother’s womb.
Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it.
You watched me as I was being formed in utter seclusion,
as I was woven together in the dark of the womb.
You saw me before I was born.
Every day of my life was recorded in your book.
Every moment was laid out before a single day had passed.

How precious are your thoughts about me, O God.
They cannot be numbered! I can’t even count them;
they outnumber the grains of sand!
And when I wake up, you are still with me!

O God, if only you would destroy the wicked!
Get out of my life, you murderers!
They blaspheme you; your enemies misuse your name.
O Lord, shouldn’t I hate those who hate you?
Shouldn’t I despise those who oppose you?
Yes, I hate them with total hatred,
for your enemies are my enemies.

Search me, O God, and know my heart;
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Point out anything in me that offends you,
and lead me along the path of everlasting life.
