Read each line very carefully...isn't it beautiful! Our Lord God knows each of us intimately. He is with us constantly. God made us wonderfully. God judges righteously.
It is best to read the Word and let the Spirit search us and speak to us, for then we discover the truth. We must never dispute with God, for He loves us and wants only the very best for us!!
Psalm 139
God's Omnipresence and Omniscience. For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
O LORD, You have searched me and known me.
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
You understand my thought from afar.
You scrutinize my path and my lying down,
And are intimately acquainted with all my ways.
Even before there is a word on my tongue,
Behold, O LORD, You know it all.
You have enclosed me behind and before,
And laid Your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
It is too high, I cannot attain to it.
Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
If I ascend to heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there.
If I take the wings of the dawn,
If I dwell in the remotest part of the sea,
Even there Your hand will lead me,
And Your right hand will lay hold of me.
If I say, "Surely the (N)darkness will overwhelm me,
And the light around me will be night,"
Even the darkness is not dark to You,
And the night is as bright as the day
Darkness and light are alike to You.
For You formed my inward parts;
You wove me in my mother's womb.
I will give thanks to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
Wonderful are Your works,
And my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from You,
When I was made in secret,
And skillfully wrought in the depths of the earth;
Your eyes have seen my unformed substance;
And in Your book were all written
The days that were ordained for me,
When as yet there was not one of them.
How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!
How vast is the sum of them!
If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand
When I awake, I am still with You.
O that You would slay the wicked, O God;
Depart from me, therefore, men of bloodshed.
For they speak against You wickedly,
And Your enemies take Your name in vain.
Do I not hate those who hate You, O LORD?
And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
I hate them with the utmost hatred;
They have become my enemies.
Search me, O God, and know my heart;
Try me and know my anxious thoughts;
And see if there be any hurtful way in me,
And lead me in the everlasting way."
After being sick since Tuesday of this week, with fever and coughing. I was forced to stay at home for 3 days. It gave me time to reflect on God's word and pray for others who need prayers.
If you also would like to pray, would you add these to yours. Just a few of the prayers.
Mr. T has esophageal cancer and needs a cure and miracles.
Tina in Michigan has 3 children: 2 twins age 16, and a daughter age 15. After making a go-cart, an accident occurred. One of the twins a boy needed surgery. The Mother was able to pray with him before he went to the OR (Surgery). Their entire family are Christians. He had a severed artery and died in surgery.
Sarah also from Michigan, a friends friend. 14 years old is on a ventilor with Stephen Johnson Syndrome. A disorder of sloughing of the skin on the entire body, causing a 3rd degree burn. It is very painful. It usually occurs after an allergic type reaction from a drug, such as Sulfa. She is doing better, but this is a critical need for prayer.
A friend has a church in Africa and needs a school. My sister did a mission at that church location. They just lost their power for 4 days. Needed your prayers.
A mission we pray with several times a week. I am not at liberty to discuss too much information, but they start churches in India, Pakistan, Nepal, (they use the people of those countries to start the church groups. They have 30,000 new believers. They need prayers.
My husband who is a Surgical Oncologist, our mission is Melanoma Center of Hope. Can we be the hands, feet, and words of Jesus. Can we feed His sheep, the way He would like us to do. We give Bibles away and pray for the patients, only if they allow us to do so. They come in to have surgery for Malignant Melanoma, Merkel Cell Carcinoma, and Soft Tissue Sarcoma. We pray each day for the patients who are having surgery this week or in the future, ones who need healing or waiting for pathology. We pray for the ones who just got a bad report. The ones who just received a poor result from their pet or Cat scan. We pray for the ones who are alive because God's great great grace and healing. He doesn't sometime perform miracles, He does them everyday, all the time!!!
Use us all Lord!

I just love that passage of the Bible. I have memorized so that everytime I lose sight of who God has made me, the Holy Spirit can remind me gently. There are a lot of needs. I am praying for them right now. You have a wonderful day and I hope you feel better Aunt Teresa!
Love,
Tamara
