“ To Be Known!”

Scripture Reading:  Psalm 139:1-6, 13-18

The Inescapable God

             1O Lord, you have searched me and known me. 2You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from far away. 3You search out my path and my lying down, and are acquainted with all my ways. 4Even before a word is on my tongue, O Lord, you know it completely. 5You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me. 6Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is so high that I cannot attain it.

          13For it was you who formed my inward parts; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. 14I praise you, for I am  fearfully  and wonderfully made.  wonderful are your works; that I know very well. 15My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depth of the earth. 16Your eyes beheld my unformed  substance. In your book were written all the days that were formed for me, when none of them as yet existed. 17How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! 18I try to count them—they are more than the sand; I come to the end—I am still with you.
