The Lord knows my thoughts.

Aaron and his sons must wear them whenever they enter the tent of meeting or approach the altar to minister in the Holy Place, so that they will not incur guilt and die. “This is to be a lasting ordinance for Aaron and his descendants.//

God and guilt cannot exist in the same place at the same time.

God is inescapable. Good news for believers; bad news for unbelievers.

because that cloak is the only covering your neighbor has. What else can they sleep in? When they cry out to me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.//

The Lord hears my cries because He is compassionate.

God knows the way I am.

Exodus 18:17-18

Moses’ father-in-law replied, “What you are doing is not good. You and these people who come to you will only wear yourselves out. The work is too heavy for you; you cannot handle it alone.//

Psalm 138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, you preserve my life; with your right hand you save me.//

Trouble will always be there…but so is God’s preserving power!
