hope for the moment 4

Psalms 139:16 NKJ (I love how it is written in this particular version!)  Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
         And in Your book they all were written,
         The days fashioned for me,
         When as yet there were none of them. 

Romans 8:38-29 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

These verses together bring to my mind another verse that is also in Psalms 139.  It is verse 5 :You have hedged me behind and before, And laid Your hand.
upon me.  There is nothing we can do, no where we can go, with out running smack into God.  We may think we can run from him and he can withhold the feeling of his presence from us, but he is always there.  He has been there before us, he is with us now, and he will be there in the future.  I know this, yes, but knowing it and meditating on the awesomeness of it are two different things :) Today I want to keep in mind that Even though he knows me better than anyone even myself He loves me and nothing can separate me from him! Not only has he planned my days, and nothing that enters them is a surprise to him or something he can't deal with, but He has planned to go with me through them! Thank you Lord!! Such knowledge really is too wonderful for me! (psalms 139:6)
