I feel honestly that I cannot breathe without the Lord. His presence is just there. All the time. I can't explain it but I know it. Even when I'm saying, thinking, or feeling something I shouldn't, His presence is there. Comforting or disciplining both. He is there when I'm rejoicing in the birth of a grandchild. He is there when I am hurting from rejection. Even if I wanted to, I cannot escape it.
Lord, you have seen what is in my heart.
You know all about me.
You know when I sit down and when I get up.
You know what I'm thinking even though you are far away.
You know when I go out to work and when I come back home.
You know exactly how I live.
Lord, even before I speak a word,
you know all about it.
You are all around me. You are behind me and in front of me.
You hold me in your power.
I'm amazed at how well you know me.
It's more than I can understand.
How can I get away from your Spirit?
Where can I go to escape from you?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there.
If I lie down in the deepest parts of the earth, you are also there.
Suppose I were to rise with the sun in the east
and then cross over to the west where it sinks into the ocean.
Your hand would always be there to guide me.
Your right hand would still be holding me close. (Psalm 139:1-10)
