OnTrack Devotions Expedition Series: Transparent: Psalm 139

By Dwight E. Peterson

You have a game face... likely several of them. It's the part of you that you let others see. It changes some depending on who is around and what the situation is. Everybody plays the game and everybody knows it. So do you have a game face for God? Are there parts of your heart, soul and mind that are "off-limits" for Him? In one sense it's ridiculous. In another sense, you know that's how you play the spiritual game to one extent or another. After all, if God had to wade through your junk it might stain His holiness or something. Your rational mind says He takes a long walk when your path gets messy because somehow He is too pure to deal with your muddy boots. Just like if the people around you saw the messy parts inside you they wouldn't trust you to lead or minister to them.Psalm 139 takes that concept of God and turns it on its head. He is intensely personal. He sees it all. He's there when it happens. He knows you inside out. And He is still walking the path with you regardless. Maybe the real question is whether you are ready to drop the game face with Him and find freedom in being transparent.
