“And [Peter] said to Him, ‘Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You’” (John 21:17).
Since God knows all things, He knows our struggles and will help us through them.
It’s comforting to know that in the vastness of the universe, I’m not lost in insignificance; God knows me personally.
Have you ever wondered if He knows you’re there? Some godly people in Malachi’s time wondered that.
Malachi spoke words of judgment against the wicked, but the faithful believers feared that God might forget them and that they too would be consumed by God’s wrath.
“Then those who feared the Lord spoke to one another, and the Lord gave attention and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before Him for those who fear the Lord and who esteem His name.
‘And they will be Mine,’ says the Lord of hosts, ‘on the day that I prepare My own possession, and I will spare them as a man spares his own son who serves him’” (Malachi. 3:16-17).
God has a book, and He doesn’t forget who belongs in it. I know that God knows me and that I belong to Him.
David, too, found comfort in God’s omniscience. He said, “Thou hast taken account of my wanderings; put my tears in Thy bottle; are they not in Thy book?” (Psalm. 56:8).
It was customary for hired mourners at funerals in David’s time to catch their tears in a bottle, perhaps to prove they earned their money. David knew that none of his trials went unnoticed by God.
Not only does He know about them, He cares about them too.
You might be frustrated sometimes in your Christian walk as you see sin in your life.
But happily for us, God knows that we still love Him in spite of our failings.
In John 21, Peter kept trying to convince Christ that he loved Him, although his words and actions didn’t always prove it.
Finally Peter said, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You” (v. 17).
Peter appealed to the Lord’s omniscience. We can do the same thing when we stumble.
Prayer
Thank God for knowing and caring about your struggles.
