YOU

Do you long for someone

to really KNOW you?

 

Do you wish someone

understood you completely?

 

The One and only God

who shaped you inside your mother

 

knows you

completely

 

And He knows you so well

because He made you the way He did

 

for reasons and purposes

eternal

 

He breathed life into you

and gave you your own unique

you-ness

 

Personality

Spirit

Strengths

Gifts

 

and they could only come

from our Creator,

our Spirit God

 

He knew

that when He made you

 

It was good

 

So when you are tempted

to feel alone

and misunderstood

and less than

 

KNOW your unique place

in this God Story

eternally told

 

and let yourself be encouraged

by intimacy Divine

 

Love deep and sincere

 

for YOU

Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you. Before you were born, I set you apart for My holy purpose…

– Jeremiah 1:5 (GW)

 

…I have called you by name; you are Mine.

– Isaiah 43:1 (NLT)

 

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!

– Psalm 139:1-18 (NLT)

 

 

 Then God looked over all he had made, and he saw that it was very good!

– Genesis 1:31 (NLT)
