The last two episodes have focused on the fact that God knows everything. He knows everything that has or will happen, and he knows the infinite number of things that could have happened but didn’t. I want to pause today and comment on the fact that God’s omniscience should be a source of comfort for the Christian. As you experience the events of your life, you likely have times of joy and times of sorrow and distress. While those times might take you by surprise, they are never a surprise to God. Before he created the universe, he knew you, and he knew all the events that would transpire in your life. You can take comfort that no matter what happens, God was not surprised and he is in control.
