God Already Knew

Before Joseph was betrayed by his brothers...
       God already knew.
Before he landed in that dark and lonely pit...
       God already knew.
Before he was sold into slavery...
       God already knew.
Before he was unjustly thrown into jail ...
       God already knew.
Before he rose to second in command of the whole nation of Egypt...
       God already knew.
Before you received that disparaging news...
       God already knew.
Before you cried...
       God already knew.
Before...
       God knew.

No matter what you have faced, are facing, or will face...
- Remember -
God sees, God knows, and most important God cares.

"O Lord, You have searched me and known me. You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, behold, O Lord, You know it all."  ~ David (Psalm 139:1-4)

  1. Good reminder, Crystal. I've written about Psalm 139. When I'm facing a difficult decision, it helps to just sit down, read it, and pray.
