He Knows

Do you know how many hairs are on your head right now? Our heavenly Father does. Jesus said, "And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered", (Matthew 10:30). Now you might be thinking that this is a strange illustration for Jesus to use, what difference does it make if God knows how many hairs are on my head? Could Jesus not have referred to more significant and important things?, like every crisis in our lives is numbered, every prayer is numbered, or every need is numbered. However I believe that this was exactly Jesus point. If God knows exactly how many hairs are on our heads, he knows how many times your heart has beat today, what you ate for breakfast this morning and what you will eat tomorrow, how many times you've thought about the weather this week and what the weather will be like next week, the exact time you woke up and what time you will go to sleep tonight, your excitement about tonight's football game and what the final score will be. If he knows such seemingly trivial and insignificant things about us and our lives, how much more does he care and know about the significant and important things in our lives. God knows more about you, than you know about yourself! He wants to be involved in every little area of our lives, not matter how unimportant they seem to us. And so I challenge you, next time you wonder if God notices and cares, pluck a hair from your head and remember that God saw that!!
