Promises of Psalm 139 for Seth!


The Lord has searched you and He knows you.


He knows when you sit and when you rise; even from a distance He knows what you are thinking.


He knows when you go out and when you lay down; and he is familiar with all your ways – you are not out of His sight for one moment.


Before a word even comes out your mouth, God knows it.


Look behind you - God is there, Look ahead of you and He is waiting for you. His hand will always comfort you, even when ours can’t.


All this is too wonderful and almost too much to take in!
Is there any where you can go from his Spirit or run from His presence? If you go up to the heavens, there He is. If you go to the depths of the earth, underground, God is there. If you ride on the mornings wings or settle on the other side of the sea – even there He waits for you; to guide you, to love you.

If you say, “I know, the darkness will hide me.” Even the dark isn’t dark to God – night and day, dark and light, they are all the same to God.

God created you from the inside out – He formed you in the womb – you are amazing. We praise God because you are fearfully and wonderfully made. God knew exactly how you were made, bit by bit, how you were sculpted from nothing into something. Like an open book, God watched you grow from conception to birth; all the stages of your life were spread out before Him. The days of your life all prepared before you even lived one day.


God’s thoughts about us are incredible. They are so many we can’t even count them – they absolutely out number the grains of sand.


Seth, May you wake up every morning knowing God is with you and be willing to walk with Him every day! -Mom and Dad
