I was comforted tonight. I read Psalm 139 and It reminded me that no matter who doesn’t understand me because of how different my brain works… That God, the sovereign, all powerful God who keeps the entire universe held together… KNOWS me. That wasn’t what comforted me though. What comforted me was that He knows me perfectly, AND he wants the best for me. No matter how much my circumstances suck at this moment in time… No matter how hard things get… No matter what kind of struggles I have to deal with today… God knows me. And this is part of his plan to get me to where I am supposed to be.
If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me,
and the light about me be night,”
even the darkness is not dark to you;
the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you.
For you formed my inward parts;
you knitted me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.
Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you,
when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.
Your eyes saw my unformed substance;
in your book were written, every one of them,
the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.
How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them!
If I would count them, they are more than the sand.
I awake, and I am still with you.
Psalm 139:11-18
