God Knows All Things

God Knows all Things “To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.” Revelation 2:7 Someday we are all going to stand before the throne of God and be judged on our life. This will be our day when the book of our life will be opened for God to look at and judge us on. I recently saw a story that I believe tells how God will account for all our actions. It was almost time for school to dismiss and a mother noticed it looked like rain. So she drove toward the school to pick up her eight-year old daughter. She turned down the street to see her daughter running towards her down the sidewalk. A lightening bolt flashed and the little girl looked up towards the sky, smiled and then began running towards her mother’s car. Another lightening bolt flashed and again the little girl looked towards the sky, smiled and resumed running. This happened several more times until the little girl finally arrived at where her mother was parked. Her mom immediately inquired as to the strange behavior, “Why did you keep stopping and smiling at the sky,” she asked her daughter. “I had to, mommy, God was taking my picture.” God knows all the things that we do throughout our lives. He knows our thoughts, our actions and our behavior and all the things about us. There is nothing concerning our behavior and actions that we can hide, or even think about that is hidden from His sight. We need to keep this in mind throughout our day and remind ourselves that God, like the little girl, is keeping snapshots of our lives and one day will have these pictures in our files for all to see and be judged on. Life can be hard sometimes to always do what is good and just in the sight of God, but just remember the afterlife can be harder.
