Commentaries - Psalm 139:1-6


“O Lord, Thou hast searched me and known me. Thou dost know when I sit down and when I rise up; Thou dost understand my thought from afar. Thou dost scrutinize my path and my lying down, and art intimately acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O Lord, Thou dost know it all. Thou has t enclosed me behind and before, and laid Thy hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful to me; it is too high, I cannot attain to it.”

In his book, “The Word”, Warren Wiersbe says of this opening section of the Psalm, “He knows what you do. He knows you personally and intimately, so don’t try to fool Him. Be open and honest with God, and rest in His love. His eye is upon you,, and you have nothing to fear.

“There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves punishment, and the one who fears is not perfected in love. We love because He first loved us.” I John 4:18

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: Please continue to pray for Carla’s brother, Joe, who was rushed to the hospital with a possible brain injury, and for her mom who is distraught because of this. Pray also for the continually improving health of David and Adrian.
