Psalm 94 Verse

18 When I said, “My foot is slipping,”
    your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.
19 When anxiety was great within me,
    your consolation brought me joy.

I am really good at worrying. I’m sure that a lot of us are. It’s hard to turn off your mind and let go of whatever is bothering you. Even when I try to let go of it I keep picking it back up again. When worry, anxiety and depression fill us up it pushes out all our good feelings and takes over. Then we have to struggle to reclaim the promises that you have made…that you will heal all our ills, save us from the storm and keep us safe.

Prayer : God of compassion, hold us safe in your arms and when worry comes fill us with you love, healing and peace. AMEN

Psalm 139 Veerses 1-6

You have searched me, Lord,
    and you know me.
You know when I sit and when I rise;
    you perceive my thoughts from afar.
You discern my going out and my lying down;
    you are familiar with all my ways.
Before a word is on my tongue
    you, Lord, know it completely.
You hem me in behind and before,
    and you lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
    too lofty for me to attain.

We forget that Gods is aware of everything that we do. We cannot hide from his presence. This is God God who is present with each of us every single day. God is within us. Many times we think of God as being in heaven or at a distance but this is not true. God is Immanent and Infinite…that means he is always here but his ways are more wonderous than we can imagine.

Prayer: Intimate and Infinite God, This Psalm clearly tells us clearly you understand us. Thank you for being in our lives. Remind us that you are with us in each moment. But also thank you for being far beyond our understanding. AMEN
