Psalm 139:5
You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me.
In our small group bible/sermon studies through our church, last night
we were contemplating the verse below and how we can be mightily transformed in our
thinking and actions if we truly take God at His word!
Heb.13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have,
because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”
In today's Daily Bread Devotion we are reminded
that no one knows what will happen!
Life is always full of uncertainties.
God and his Word the one constant certainty!
Hallelujah!
What sweet comfort and joy
Before, behind, beside
A safeguard nothing can destroy
Shields us from evil’s tide
Where, though storms ebb and flow
And oft we weep and groan
What sweet comfort and joy to know
We are never alone
Dear one, do not despair
No matter what betide
God keeps us in His faithful care
Before, behind, beside
No foe can penetrate
The bulwark of His Word
No guard on earth can compensate
For God’s arm undeterred
What He says He will do
His vow is bona fide
He accompanies me and you
Before, behind, beside
Nothing seen can compare
To the peace faith receives
As humble trust turns into prayer
And utterly believes
How near The Unseen draws
As sweet comfort and joy
Transcends The Seen with hope because
Of what none can destroy

Isa. 40:28
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
