Some member of one of my homeschool groups is trying to memorize Psalm 139. The Lord has really laid it on my friend’s heart the importance of memorizing scripture. So, a bunch of us agreed to memorize this chapter together. This is the passage I hope to memorize this next week. I actually memorized this as a child. We will see how much I remember. Since our group is memorizing this chapter together, hopefully it will help to hold me accountable. Any of you guys want to join in?? Feel free. You can even send me an e-mail and let me know what you have memorized, and we can encourage each other as well.
Psalm 139: 1-6
1 O LORD, you have searched me
and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue
you know it completely, O LORD.
5 You hem me in—behind and before;
you have laid your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
too lofty for me to attain.
I think this is such a comforting passage to know that God knows everything about us, and he always knows where we are. Isn’t it great to have a God who cares about us that much!
