Wisdom of Our God
(Official Lyric Video) - Keith
& Kristyn Getty
“Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I lee from
Your presence? If I ascend to heaven,
You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, the nether world, the place of the
dead, 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 take hold of me.” Psalm
139:7-10
“’Am I a God who is at hand,’ says the Lord, ‘And not a
God far away?’ Can anyone hide himself
in secret places so that I cannot see him?’ says the Lord. ‘Do I not fill heaven and earth?’ says the
Lord.” Jeremiah 23:23-24
“God is in all parts of the universe and near each
person. In His creation-power God keeps
the world running, the vegetation growing, animal life and human life
continuing. God is everywhere in His
power to hold things together.
“Can it be said that God is on a desert island where there
are no people? If He were not there in
His creation-power, how would the grass grow or the island hold together? He is everywhere to hold things together, to
keep the grass growing, the insects alive, and the sea within its bounds.
“However, when a man is on that island, then it can be said
that God is there in a special sense to do His office work in the heart of that
human being.[1]”
During this historic time when it is easy to feel alone and
isolated, we must take comfort in His ever-present love and compassion!
Take care with love, especially His, Darlene (who still
prays for you each day)
