THE LORD KNOWS

Psalm 1:6 (NKJV) 6 For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, But the way of the ungodly shall perish. 
  When we say "we know someone," it means we are aware of their activities and we understand who they are. However we may think, we understand a person in light of their actions, and not really know who they are.
  A child was trying to sell a knife at school, he was caught and severely reprimanded, threatened with expulsion, and the parents were called. The calls went unanswered for days and finally the principal went to find the child's parents. The house was a wreck and the parent who was living in the home was in the hospital dying of cancer. The child was trying to get money to survive.
   To know someone you must know all about that person or we really know nothing. Our God knows our ways and He knows who we are and where we have come from. He knows our struggles, the way we walk and the things that motivate us, He is not surprised at the upside down thinking, or the wrong side out, ideas we embrace.
   God knows the way of the righteous and approves, He is aware of the ways of the life set on separation from Him and that way is hopeless. To know if your life is "The Way of the righteous," ask yourself, do I walk like Jesus walked? 1 John 2:6 Jesus came to show us how we are to live righteous before our Creator, and then He took all our sin on himself and went to meet death, where all sin is covered by His blood. Sin is left in the grave forever, Jesus is alive forever, and we can live with Him forever, if we trust Him with all our life.
Heavenly Father, the way of the righteous is your way, help that we may walk that way today. May we seek You early and trust You with everything in our lives, You know who we are, and You alone now what we need. Amen
