Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up.
Psalm 139:1–2

God’s Word never suggests we are to live on secondhand experiences. I may be taught, cared for, and nourished by the help and counsel of others—my mentors as well as my peers—but the One who saved me for Himself, and has called me unto Himself, also desires to draw me closer to Himself.

He is the One who “knows my sitting down and my rising up,” who knows “the thoughts and intents” of my heart, who “knows each word before it is spoken from my lips” and who “numbers the hairs of my head.” God does more than take statistical notice of my existence. He desires to be personally involved with the details of my life—continually.
