If everyone could read everyone else's minds, we'd probably all try to be a lot more careful with our thoughts lest we think anything offensive or embarrassing or that we would later regret for any reason. And yet, God knows every thought before we think it, but do we really try to 'keep our thoughts clean' and take them captive so that we won't regret thinking something God wouldn't approve of? Or because He won't ever hate us, do we just not care?

That's a very good point, Emily. We ought to remember that God, who knows us perfectly, is always near us and watching.
I think that that is exactly right. "we just don't care." And yet, how could we? We've only been given everything and more. With every sin we say, "You're death isn't enough for ME."
What a forgiving God? Who forgives-well knowing and bearing everything we did wrong.
Another great post, btw.
'your death isn't enough for me.' OUCH. And it's so true.
How can we ever cease to glory in the wonder of the magnitude of His sacrifice for us - the worst of sinners, every one? We should be absolutely lost in amazement every day of our lives.
He knows our worst thoughts and secrets - everything about every single person who has lived, lives, and has yet to live, and still He loves us. How awesome and worthy of all praise is the God we serve!!
