Then Jesus declared, “I, the one speaking to you—I am he.” 26 Praise Him Where He Is Psalm 139:1-18 – You have searched me, Lord, 1 and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; 2 you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; 3 you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue 4 you, Lord, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before, 5 and you lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, 6 too lofty for me to attain. Where can I go from your Spirit? 7 Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; 8 if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, 9 if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, 10 your right hand will hold me fast. If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me 11 and the light become night around me,” even the darkness will not be dark to you; 12 the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you. For you created my inmost being; 13 you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; 14 your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you 15 when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; 16 all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be. How precious to me are your thoughts,[a] God! 17 How vast is the sum of them! Were I to count them, 18 they would outnumber the grains of sand— when I awake, I am still with you.
