Thoughts
God knows all and sees all. God knows all we do in secret and in the open. God examines the deepest thoughts of our hearts (Proverbs 21:2). Yes, God knows it all, we can’t hide anything from him. But God is not a wicked God. God’s mercy and compassion are endless. (Lamentations 3:22-23)
God The Father is our father, and God is a good father. He wants to help us with our sins and everything else in our lives, if we just let him. When we come clean with God and let God in, we find joy and peace in God. When we turn away from God and continue in sin, we are in effect destroying our own selves, because the wages of sin is death. (Rom 6:23, see more below.)
