The entry “Omni God” mentioned that God is “omniscient.” This means that he has total knowledge, knowing everything.
This is a huge and all-encompassing thought that God knows everything about everything everywhere. It is grand and a bit overwhelming.

God may know all, but he also knows me—and you!
