Counting My Steps

Job 31:4 KJV
Doth not he see my ways, and count all my steps?
Elihu will accuse Job of justifying himself in this chapter. But far from that; Job acknowledges a truth that is so important to keep in the forefront of our minds:

God not only sees our ways, but He also counts all our steps. Other Scriptures tell us that God ponders the thoughts of our hearts and that he knows the very number of the hairs of our head.

God knows the minutest details about us and our lives. God has more than a surface awareness of us. He carefully considers every aspect of our lives. Each step we take in life is counted of the Lord is counted and scored. He marks where that step has taken us, what the consequences of that step are and what step that step leads us to.

· It is a fearful thing to know that God is that aware of our lives.
· It is also a comforting thing.
