No Escape

Is there anyplace I can go to avoid your Spirit?
    to be out of your sight?
If I climb to the sky, you’re there!
    If I go underground, you’re there!
If I flew on morning’s wings
    to the far western horizon,
You’d find me in a minute—
    you’re already there waiting!
Psalm 139:7-10  
Message Bible

who are we
that the God of all creation
knows
even cares
where we are
every breath of our day

thankful

He is already
into
the very next breath of our life
waiting for us
because He
cares
because He
loves us so much

there is no
escaping
God's sight

not that I would ever want to!

Happy New Year!

I did not reach my goal
of 1,000 written entries in my journal
for 2013
(I had 979 entries)
but
this I know
thankfulness is
practicing the presence of God
which brings healing grace
to the soul

no list this year
but the attitude of gratitude
challenge remains . . . 

"I will thank the Lord at all times.
My lips will always praise Him."
Psalm 34:1
