“Keeping Tabs”

Categories: GOD, RELATIONSHIPS
I know that the Bible says that God is with us every step of the way, that He knows what we think, is concerned for us, and what we encounter. However, is God really with us literally every step of the way in our journey of life?

Sincerely,
Looking Over My Shoulder

Dear Looking Over My Shoulder,

There is no specific verse that says God is with us "every step of the way".  However, He does know our hearts (Acts 1:24) and even knows the number of hairs on our heads (Lk 12:7).  We are not sure what you mean by "literally", but yes, God is literally aware of our hearts and lives every second of every day – He even has angels report to Him about our activities (Matt 18:10).
