Psalm 139 :
O Lord, you have examined my heart
and know{Yada} everything about me.Yada :: {Hebrew} to know by experience, to understand, to be acquainted with
He thinks about you all the time…
He made you wonderfully….
It would stand to reason, that He knows you.
He knows your heart, even the parts you keep hidden from your BFF.
He knows where you are going and where you have been.
He even knows what you are thinking and what you are going to say next.
The Hebrew word for know is Yada. He knows. Jehovah Yada. The One True God, knows you.
I know what you are thinking, “Yada, yada, yada” , “Blah, blah, blah” — so?
Our culture has taken the meaning of this word and turned it into casual conversation worthy of a sitcom.
Yah. Yah. Yah. I know. I know. I know.

But Jehovah Yada. He knows you. Deep down in your gut – He knows you.
He gets you. He is acquainted with ALL your ways.
And with all this knowing He desires a relationship with you.
So hug your knees tight, close your eyes and let that truth meet you right where you are.
He knows you. No need for pretending. No masks required.
Yada. Yada. Yada.
