Acts 15:18: There are no Surprises for God

Acts 15:18 says, "Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world."  I see that to mean that God is aware of all that has and will happen. There are no surprises for Him. He has it all under control.  This includes your life and mine.  

God knows all my works, good and bad.  But I also want to focus on the fact that God knows my story past, present, and future.  Through divine dreams, God sometimes gives me a hint of what may happen, but usually I just have to live each day one second at a time.  However, it gives me great peace that God knows what will happen in the next second and the next long before they occur.  I know He is already holding my hand before the hard times hit and is also cheering me on for even small successes.  He knows when I will struggle physically and spiritually, and He goes before me to prepare my heart and soul to be ready to face the fears and doubts with hope and grace.  He even sees how much I love Him and want to bring His name glory.  

I praise God I serve One who holds all my days in the palms of His hands.  I may change (hopefully for the better), but God is never-changing.  His love endures and His love for me will never fade.

My steps are numbered and God has known me from mt mother's womb (see Psalm 139).  Thank you God for choosing me and directing my paths!
