Drew,  I need to share my heart with you, and since I cannot be there today….

I was thinking about how one week ago, you were planning your day, just waking or maybe you were worshipping with your Body of Christ? Where were you going that day? Why did you take the scooter and not the car? Were you enjoying that ride? I don’t know those answers. Why did the scooter malfunction? Why was it not in good shape? How did all of this lead to your accident?

But, I have to know that God was and is ALWAYS IN CONTROL, nothing is random! Our God doesn’t work that way….So I had to go to truth of His word for answers. So I am sharing this with you…..

Last Sunday – As your day went on, Our Great God, was walking with you.
He knew the events of this day, and how your need would be great, and He was walking with you each step.

David cried out and wrote this Psalm to our God:
PSALM 139:
O Lord, you have searched me and known me!
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from afar.
You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.

Drew, Before you cried out – or the realization you were crashing or the shout to the woman to look for your toe – He knew it –

4 Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, syou know it altogether.

When you and Caleb left our home, I found great comfort in this verse . Going from knowing all about you, your schedule, what you wore that day, what you would eat, and whose house you would be at – Then it was all gone and that controlling MOM, that knew it all, had to rely on the truth that God would be your guide – and I could trust He would not allow anything into your life that was not filtered through HIM!

You hem me in, behind and before,
and lay your hand upon me.

It brings me great comfort to know that He was there before and behind you last Sunday! His hand was upon you, and still is.

16   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.

God knew this day, and He has allowed it – I hate that you are in pain and suffering, burnt skin, facing each day a cleaning of your wounds.
Suffering.
Then I remember you and Ryan Delmore’s song:
I know that you are still with Him, and that He is “seeing” you, He is Jehovah – El Roi – the God who Sees….

17, 18:
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.

I pray your thoughts and dreams will be filled with these truths, and when you awake,
You praise Him that He never sleeps, it’s never dark to Him, Darkness and Light are the same and He is still with you, holding you in His hands. I love you and am thinking of you constantly…
