The Omnipresence of God

6/27/2009

Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

Psalm 139:7-10
O Love that will not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.
George Matheson

For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God,
which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Romans 8:38-39

    Ok… so how’d you get your profile picture so big? I thought you could only get the little dinky ones. lol.

    Hey, looks like we’re gonna have more storms tonight! (batten down the hatches!) Let’s just hope we don’t get any hail for the sake of our gardens… =S

  2. Sarah says:

    Btw…. I love the picture and verse! Where did you take the pic?

  3. Click ‘Layout’ on your dashboard, then ‘Add a Gadget’, select the ‘Picture’ link and load it up! 🙂 It shrinks every time I went back and edited text on that specific gadget, though… so if you need to edit something about it, you’ll probably want to delete the whole gadget and start over.

    Yeah– the storm is here alright! Better shut this computer off, huh? 🙂

    The picture was somewhere between SD and NM– I think in Colorado! It was very early in the morning and *so* beautiful!! 🙂

  4. Beautiful picture, and I LOVE that Psalm…it’s so comforting to know that (even if we WANT to) we can never escape God’s presence.

  5. Sarah says:

    Thanks Emy!!

    (so… when are you free for lunch/dinner? How ’bout Johnny C’s?) ;D

  6. How ’bouts tonight? 🙂 Tell me what time!

  7. Dearest Em! I was so tickled to stumble across your blog…How I miss you! You were one of the sweetest young women to grace ITC. I’ll be sure to check back here more often now that I know it exists. 🙂 Love you much! ~Sara

  8. Sara! What a joy to hear from you! I miss you all so much. I’m glad for the internet that we can still keep in contact even though we’re hundreds of miles away! 🙂

    Love you too- God bless!!
