Psalm 100:3

Pam Padgett - teacher

Psalm 100:3 Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; ...

God made us according to His will, and knows everything about us ... what we need, those things that affect us and how we are affected by them, what help we need and how best to help us, His purpose for us in what we're facing.  There is nothing about us that God doesn't know. 

There are times when I am aware that I'm troubled without knowing what is causing the troubling.  But God knows, and I can turn to Him to help me even though I don't understand the problem. 

Other times I recognize a problem, but I don't know what to do about it.  God knows everything about me and the problem and how best to help me. 

At times I don't know what I need.  Years ago when I was bored with the type of work I was doing and turned to God, I asked if there was something I might enjoy doing. I had no idea what that might be.  But God knew, and I was led step-by-step to computer programming which was a perfect "fit" for me. 

And God knows how to "get through to me", how to reach me with what I need to know or to guide me in the way I should go.
