Lesson 358

O LORD, Thou hast searched me, and known me.

Excerpt

O LORD, Thou hast searched me, and known me. Thou knowest my downsitting and mine uprising, Thou understandest my thought afar off. Thou measurest my going about and my lying down, And art acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word in my tongue, But, lo, O LORD, Thou knowest it altogether. Thou hast hemmed me in behind and before, And laid Thy hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; Too high, I cannot attain unto it.

✨ To meditate on today

According to the psalmist, God knows him completely — his actions, his rest, his thoughts, his words even before he speaks them — and lays His hand upon him, like a presence that surrounds. Today, take a moment to place your hand on your heart and let yourself be known just as you are, hiding nothing and proving nothing.
