Read Psalm 139:1-6.
God knows you inside and out—better than you even know yourself.
Ready this passage again.
1. How do you feel knowing that God knows you this well?
2. What part of your life do you tend to hide from God that you could share with him right now?
Flip through the magazines you’ve gathered to find images that relate to your life. Look for words or pictures of sports you play, activities you engage in, things you like. Let this image remind you that these things should all be shared with Jesus. You can tell him about your successes and failure, your ups and down, your struggles and your victories.
Today you’re going to be given a challenge: pray with a friend. You can do this over the phone or you can arrange for a time to meet.
Ask yourself this question, “What is one aspect of my relationship with God that I would like to see grow deeper?” Share your answer with your friend, and have them share their answer with you. Spend time in prayer with one another asking God to help each of you step forward.
Special note: Keep in mind that even though God knows the bad stuff, nothing can separate us from his love. Read Romans 8:38 and believe God on his promise. Tomorrow doesn’t have to be the same as the bad things that are going on today.

1) Well, I kinda have mixed emotions. It is kinda scary, to know that He knows me so well that he could know what choice I will make before I even make that choice. What does that do to free will? Yet, it also feels right and comforting. Like God should know me so well, and it is good to know that someone understand me, truely, even moreso than I understand myself.
