Today, we look at verses seventeen and eighteen of the Psalm. “How weighty to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! I try to count them—they are more than the sand; I come to the end—I am still with you.” Notes can be found here: Try using these prayers as starters for your own: - "Lord, Your thoughts toward me are more than I can comprehend. I stand in awe of Your greatness and the depth of Your love for me. Thank You for always being with me, knowing me, and guiding me." - "Thank You, Lord, for Your constant presence and the assurance that You are always with me. I commit myself to walking with You today, trusting Your wisdom and knowing that I am never alone." --- Conclusion Next time, we will move on to verses nineteen to twenty-two. I am planning a spiritual experience day based on Psalm 139 in the spring of 2025. If you'd be interested, please email me at malcolm@malcolmcox.org.
