A husband was lying in bed suffering from a terrible hangover. Feeling sorry for him, his wife knelt beside the bed
and began to pray: "Lord, my husband is sick. He's not feeling well at all. Last night he got..." "Honey," he
interrupted, "don't you dare tell God I got drunk. Tell Him I have the flu." We can fool man but we cannot fool God.
God's Word reminds us that He sees and knows everyone and everything. No thought, no word, no deed can be
hidden from Him. But in spite of it all, He loves us just the way we are. And He loves us so much that He does not want
to leave us in a broken and battered condition. He does not want to leave us with heartaches and hopeless lives. He
wants to change us from the inside out so we can be the person He designed us to be. He will give us the power to
become a child of God and overcome the events of life that would destroy us.
