A Father fully knows me.
A Friend fully sees me.
Live in your affliction
with eyes fixed on God.
"To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial.
But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God.
It is what we need more than anything. John Piper
Psalm 66:7-9 God keeps watch on my world.
Bless our God, O peoples,
Sound His Praise abroad,
Who keeps us in life,
And does not allow our feet to slip.
Psalm 69:5 God, it is You who knows value
And my wrongs are not hidden from You.
You are a Friend and a Father to the rebel.
To me.
Fully seen by You.
Fully loved, too!
You know me through and through.
Psalm 69:11 When I wept in my soul, I became a byword to many.
Whatever the affliction we face this season of our life,
keep your souls to the God Who loves you so.
Bywords. Bystanders. Bylines.
Even David's own children treated him as an enemy of their soul.
"Either cling to me as I AM or
reshape Me into Who you want Me to be." 66LL
"In desperate confusion and anguish,
you will know Me in ways no one knows Me in comfort."
"Every heartache will create space that You Alone can fill.
And You will.
Teach us this day to learn a little bit better what it means to wait in hope." 66LL
Psalm 84:5-6 says:
"My soul yearns for the courts of the LORD.
Dear God, make us to know how to set our hearts in this season of weeping."
Fully Seen. Fully Loved.
