C.H. Spurgeon emphasizes the comforting nature of God's omniscience for
believers, illustrating that God's thoughts towards His children are
constant, tender, and filled with love. He reassures that God never
turns His gaze away from us, providing a sense of security and care in

CONTENT

Divine omniscience affords no comfort to the ungodly mind, but to the
child of God it overflows with consolation. God is always thinking upon
us, never turns aside His mind from us, has us always before His eyes;
and this is precisely as we would have it, for it would be dreadful to
exist for a moment beyond the observation of our heavenly Father. His
thoughts are always tender, loving, wise, prudent, far-reaching, and
they bring to us countless benefits: hence it is a choice delight to
remember them.

The Lord always did think upon His people: hence their election and the
covenant of grace by which their salvation is secured; He always will
think upon them: hence their final perseverance by which they shall be
brought safely to their final rest.

In all our wanderings the watchful glance of the Eternal Watcher is
evermore fixed upon us--we never roam beyond the Shepherd's eye. In our
sorrows He observes us incessantly, and not a pang escapes Him; in our
toils He marks all our weariness, and writes in His book all the
struggles of His faithful ones. These thoughts of the Lord encompass us
in all our paths, and penetrate the innermost region of our being.

Not a nerve or tissue, valve or vessel, of our bodily organization is
uncared for; all the littles of our little world are thought upon by the
great God.
