Personal Notes - Psalm 139:12

“Even the darkness is not dark to Thee, And the night is as bright as the day. Darkness and light are alike to Thee."

People like the idea of degrees of good and bad. Perhaps it comes from all the measurement we live with from the time we are born – from height and weight to first response, through school with grades, at work with performance measures, our health over time – everything is measured, compared with others and rationalised as good, better or best. Yet, with God there is only one measure: are you His or not? He does not degree sin or “performance”, men do. He asks about your personal relationship with Him.

“For whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.” James 2:10

“for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.” Philippians 2:13

“He said to them, ‘But who do YOU say that I am?’” Matthew 16:15

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