God Keeps Count

Psalm 56:8

This verse unveils a compassionate facet of God's nature. David, escaping from Saul and apprehended by the Philistines, expresses profound emotional sensitivity. "Thou tellest my wanderings" indicates that God observes, enumerates, and contemplates every step taken in adversity. David's journey was remembered, and his sorrow was acknowledged.

The depiction of God gathering tears in a vessel is not mere symbolic embellishment—it is a theological affirmation. In the ancient Near East, mourners occasionally gathered tears in vessels as commemorations of sorrow. David employs this imagery to convey the truth that God not only perceives grief but also safeguards it, dignifies it, and recalls it with reverent attention.

The second sentence, "are they not in thy book?", confirms the concept of divine recordkeeping. God is not apathetic towards the afflictions of His people. Every loss, every betrayal, every silent lament in the night—none are in vain. This text does not assure the elimination of pain, but it does promise its recollection and redemption.

This text also challenges superficial theology that equates divine care with instantaneous relief. Rather, it confirms to the believer that God's love is evidenced not just in our salvation but also in His recall.

God enumerates your walks, collects your tears, and records your sorrow in His ledger. You are not overlooked. Your identity is recognized.

• Divine Intimacy: God is cognizant of every aspect of our affliction.

• Sacred Memory: Our tears hold significance; they are safeguarded in His presence.

• Covenantal Care: The believer's odyssey—meanderings and afflictions—is documented with purpose.

• Emotional Integrity: It is scriptural and devout to lament in the presence of God.

• Hope in Remembrance: What God recalls, He redeems in His own time.
