If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
and the light become night around me,”
even the darkness will not be dark to you;
the night will shine like the day,
for darkness is as light to you.
Psalms 139:11 and 12

This week, here on the Seeking Him devotional blog, we have continued along in our series on this this wonderful psalm, Psalm 139. Our devotional writers have reminded us that even when we ‘are in the dark’, God still sees us. Here are a few of their thoughts….
In God Sees, Tina wrote about the fears we all have concerning our sins…
We all have that secret sin...you know…the one that, if someone discovers it, we feel they will never love or respect us again. As believers we can be truly terrified of being found out. But what if what we thought was a horrific secret wasn’t so bad after all? What if all we had to do was confess it to God and ask Him for help us to overcome it?
You see the evil one has a way of playing with our minds. He makes us think we can’t change. He makes us think that life is hopeless. But it is not hopeless. God created us and He has a vision, a purpose for us.

In God Sees All, Ann reminded us that it is just not possible to hide anything from God….
Our God sees everything and we cannot hide anything from him. He is omnipresence and omniscient (all-knowing). Indeed darkness and light are all His—He created them. He is the one who separated darkness and light (Genesis 1).
The good and the bad things we do are bare in the eyes of God. Therefore whatsoever we do, let us be Christ-conscious not man-conscious.
