Bite Size Bible Study: God Knows Us Intimately and Loves Us Deeply

God knows the number of hairs on our head, God records our tears

As an introduction to this study, read God Knows Us Intimately and Loves Us Dearly. It explains the wonderful love of God expressed in Psalm 56:8, Matthew 10:29-31, and 1 Peter 5:7. He cares about every tear, He knows exactly how many hairs are on our head, and He wants bear our burdens.

Here are some additional verses that show us the incredible love and care of our Father God:

Romans 8:15-16: The Spirit you received does not make you slaves, so that you live in fear again; rather, the Spirit you received brought about your adoption to sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father.” 16 The Spirit himself testifies with our spirit that we are God’s children.

Meaning of "Abba":
Abbá – "Father," also used as the term of tender endearment by a beloved child – i.e. in an affectionate, dependent relationship with their father; "daddy," "papa." (source)

You'll also find "Abba" used in Galatians 4:6 and Mark 14:36.

1 John 3:1: “See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!”

Ephesians 3:17-19: I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

God's love surpasses knowledge...it's beyond our full understanding. As the Living Bible says, God's love is "too great to understand fully."
