‘Even the darkness will not be darkness to You.’ Psalm 139:13.
There is no hiding from God, even those who don’t believe in Him are fully exposed to His light. He throws a spotlight on our lives and nothing is hidden. Yet what a blessing it is from God that He allows a period of darkness. Our human state couldn’t cope with light all the time. Even those who have to work during the night are allowed a period of rest. But there is no darkness with God. To God darkness is light. He has night vision, with nothing hidden from Him. This also a warning to us that He sees right into our souls.
I have read that the people of North Korea are taught that Kim Jon-un can read their minds, so they mustn’t even think badly about him and his government. Kim Jong-un is actually powerless compared with our God, who does know our thoughts and everything about us. God sees the injustices of the world, He sees the broken-hearted, nothing is hidden from Him. ‘Where can I go from Your Spirit? Where can I hide from Your presence? If I go up to the heavens, You are there, if I make my bed in the depths, You are there.’ Psalm 139:7-8
