The Joy of Being Known

Elevate Your Day with Andi and Brian Hale

Who knows you best? Your spouse might know your quirks, like how you take your coffee or what makes you laugh. Your friends might know your hobbies or your go-to stories. Your coworkers might see your strengths and struggles. But there’s Someone who knows you deeper than all of them—God.
Before you were even born, He knew your name, your personality, your dreams. When Jesus called His disciples—Peter, James, John, Matthew—He didn’t need introductions. He knew them inside and out, just like He knows you. He knows your favorite meal, your secret worries, the things you’re too afraid to say out loud. And here’s the best part: He loves you anyway.

Being fully known and fully loved by Jesus is a gift. You don’t have to hide or pretend with Him. He sees it all and says, “You’re Mine.” That’s a friendship deeper than any other.
Let’s Pray:

“Jesus, thank You for knowing every part of me and loving me still. Fill me with the joy of being Yours. Amen.”
Questions to Reflect On:

1. Who are the people in your life who know you well? List them out.
2. Who on that list gets you the most? How does that feel?
3. What does it mean to you that God knows everything about you?

Take Action:

Strike up a conversation with someone new today. Ask about their favorite food, movie, or hobby—get to know them a little and show them they’re seen.
