My Question.

 My question for today is how is it possible that while Jesus was suffering on the cross, did he have me personally on his mind? There are eight billion people on Earth today. There is no telling how many people have lived since the first century. Now I believe that God can know us all personally, I have my doubts that Christ did or could know us all. And that he had other things on his mind that day.

God knows the stars and calls them all by name. The Father no doubt knows us personally as individuals. But when Jesus died on the cross he was satisfying God's demands for justice, not you and me individually. We pray as individuals to be saved. But Christ died for humanity, not just for me.

This is too much for me. I cannot remember or know a lot of things. I cannot fathom how Jesus could know me by name way back then. But in the end it doesn't matter. I am saved today and I was born again many years ago and God knows where I live and who I am. God knows me better than I know myself.
