Psalm 139

This chapter speaks of God's involvement in our lives. God knows who we are. God formed and shaped us in our creation. God is with us wherever we go. Our lives are surrounded by God. If God surrounds our lives, the question becomes about our response. Will we open our lives to see and experience God?

  1. My opinion is that I have to get rid of lots of "clutter" in my life in order to be completely OPEN to experience God to the fullest. This beautiful scripture in Psalms reminds me of how well God already knows me - including my many weaknesses. The last verse says so much: "23 Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.24 See if there is any offensive way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting."

    It seems that a couple of the verses don't really fit. They talk about "hate" and that seems so out of line with God's love for all of us.
