He knows!

"Are not five sparrows sold for two cents?  Yet not one of them is forgotten before God.  Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered.  Do not fear; you are more valuable than many sparrows."  Luke 12:6-7
"And do not seek what you will eat and what you will drink, and do not keep worrying.  For all thee things the nations of the world eagerly seek; but your Father knows that you need these things."  Luke 12: 29-30

Curious.  How many times do we forget that He is not human, stuck with human tendencies.  He is God.  He doesn't fit in a box.  He doesn't fail us like we fail each other.  He is God!  His power is limitless.  His knowledge is limitless.  As this verse says, He is fully aware of how many hairs are on our heads.  I don't know about you, but my hair falls out constantly.  But He is always aware of the numbers of hair on my head.  He KNOWS me.  Every little detail.  Down to the tiniest thing, like how many tears I have cried.  He holds each one of us in the palm of His hands.  He genuinely cares!  He doesn't get frustrated at us, like we do with each other.  He just loves us and waits for us to turn back to Him.  There is no need to fear.  He already knows what is going to happen for each of the days we are allotted.  You know why we don't need to fear?  Because He has promised that He will ALWAYS be with us...seeing us through, no matter what happens.  And He cannot lie.  So we can take that to the bank.  He will ALWAYS carry us through and we will be stronger on the other side!  Guaranteed.  No worries, God is in CONTROL! 
What are you dragging along with you?  How can you give it, once and for all, over to God?  What worries are taking your focus off the God who takes care of it all for you?   Focus on Him, and the rest of it will fall into place.
