I AM KNOWN!

O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me. Psa 139:1

David’s life was so wide and varied for one man. He was a shepherd, singer, poet, soldier, king, family man – and an adulterer and murderer. His ups were so up that God called him a man after his own heart. And his downs were so down that they almost brought him to the dust.

He was so brave and yet he was also so fearful. Yet he had one thing no one (or anything) could take away from him – his God! He was his life. He ate, slept, fought and dreamed God. Therefore he could truthfully and confidently say that God knew him. And that was his trust, confidence, hope, faith, and his peace which passes all human understanding (Phi 4:7). For ‘his truth shall be thy shield and buckler,’ he wrote. What truth? God’s word. And what was that word? ‘I shall never leave you nor forsake you.’ ‘Fear not.’ ‘For it is God who fights for you.’

So whether in his very low-downs or very highs David never forgot for even one moment that God knew him. What are your fears, troubles and worries? Make God your 'rock, fortress, deliverer, strength, and high tower.' And then you can say confidently with David, ‘I am known!’ Have a known day today!
