Sapagkat ang Diyos ay higit sa ating budhi, at alam niya ang lahat ng bagay.

1 Juan 3:20b

Noong bata pa tayo, we always hear our parents say, “Papunta pa lang kayo, pabalik na kami.” Lagi nilang sinasabi na we should obey them dahil alam na nila ang pinagdadaanan natin.

But as reliable as our parents are, mayroon silang limitations. They don’t know everything, but there is someone who does — si God. He is omniscient. 

He already knows us while we were being formed and even before we were born. Alam ni Lord ang bilang ng bawat buhok natin. He can count all the stars in the sky, the sand, and not one sparrow falls without His knowledge.

Nothing is hidden from Him. God knows not just our past and present, but even our future. He knows what we are thinking about, what our heart truly feels, and even our secret motives. Mas kilala tayo ng Panginoon higit pa sa pagkakakilala natin sa sarili natin, and we can find comfort in that.

Because God knows everything, we can come to Him without pretensions. Puwede tayong umiyak, tumawa, o magkuwento sa Kanya in prayer. We can trust His heart and good plans for us. 

Kahit may difficult situation, madali tayong makakasunod kay Lord because we know that His instructions and decisions are based on His infinite knowledge and love for us. Lumapit lang tayo sa Kanya and surely, He will not condemn us for who we are.

He knows everything — even our imperfections — yet He loves us just the same.
