‘As God is my witness….’
People sometimes say that to assert their innocence or to show they really mean what they are about to say.
God is their witness. He is privy to everything we do and think. He knows the secrets in our hearts.
God knows when you’re hurting, when things aren’t fair, when you are so stressed with balancing stuff that you don’t have any head space left. Maybe you’ve witnessed something you wish you hadn’t.
If you are weary and feeling heavy with all the burdens you’re carrying, Jesus says: ‘Come.’
‘Come to Me, and I will give you rest.’
God isn’t a cold-hearted witness. He heals and restores, He mends broken hearts, He bandages wounds. He gives hope and peace and joy.
God is nice, and He likes you.
