rest in Him... in the unknown...

I don't like not knowing...

The loved one's words remind me...
when we don't know...
we can rest in the fact...
He knows...

I used to feel the same way about the unknown...

Being one gifted at coming up with the worst case scenario in any given situation... I was prone to worry... anxiety... fear...

As I've learned to trust Him...
I find great peace... and comfort...
in His knowing...

He is NEVER caught by surprise... or off guard...
NEVER... is He at a loss for what to do...
NEVER... is He manipulated... or played the fool...

He knows...
so I don't have to...

I find rest in His knowing...
when things catch me off guard...
or I'm at a loss for what to do...
or I've been manipulated and played...

He knew... He knows...
and He has His glory...
and my good...
at the heart of it...

If you find yourself... like one I love... saying...
I don't like not knowing...
find rest...
in the truth...
the fact...
He knows...
and you don't have to...

O Lord, you have searched me and known me!

You know when I sit down and when I rise up;

you discern my thoughts from afar.

You search out my path and my lying down

and are acquainted with all my ways.

Even before a word is on my tongue,

behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.

You hem me in, behind and before,

and lay your hand upon me.

Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;

it is high; I cannot attain it.

Psalm 139:1-6 ESV
