God formed my inmost being; He knit me in my mother’s womb!

 

For the leader, God. A psalm of David.

I LORD, you have probed me, you know me:

2 you know when I sit and stand;*a you understand my thoughts from afar.

3 You sift through my travels and my rest; with all my ways you are familiar.

4 Even before a word is on my tongue, LORD, you know it all.

5 Behind and before you encircle me and rest your hand upon me.

6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, far too lofty for me to reach.b

7 Where can I go from your spirit? From your presence, where can I flee?

8 If I ascend to the heavens, you are there; if I lie down in Sheol, there you are.c

9 If I take the wings of dawn* and dwell beyond the sea,*

10 Even there your hand guides me, your right hand holds me fast.

11 If I say, “Surely darkness shall hide me, and night shall be my light”*—

12 Darkness is not dark for you, and night shines as the day. Darkness and light are but one.d

II

13 You formed my inmost being; you knit me in my mother’s womb.e

14 I praise you, because I am wonderfully made; wonderful are your works! My very self you know.

15 My bones are not hidden from you, When I was being made in secret, fashioned in the depths of the earth.*

16 Your eyes saw me unformed; in your book all are written down;f my days were shaped, before one came to be.

III

17 How precious to me are your designs, O God; how vast the sum of them!

18 Were I to count them, they would outnumber the sands; when I complete them, still you are with me.g

19 When you would destroy the wicked, O God, the bloodthirsty depart from me!h

20 Your foes who conspire a plot against you are exalted in vain.

IV

21 Do I not hate, LORD, those who hate you? Those who rise against you, do I not loathe?i

22 With fierce hatred I hate them, enemies I count as my own.

23 Probe me, God, know my heart; try me, know my thoughts.j

24 See if there is a wicked path in me; lead me along an ancient path.*

~Psalm 139

* [Psalm 139] A hymnic meditation on God’s omnipresence and omniscience. The psalmist is keenly aware of God’s all-knowing gaze (Ps 139:1–6), of God’s presence in every part of the universe (Ps 139:7–12), and of God’s control over the psalmist’s very self (Ps 139:13–16). Summing up Ps 139:1–16, 17–18 express wonder. There is only one place hostile to God’s rule—wicked people. The psalmist prays to be removed from their company (Ps 139:19–24). From the website: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/psalms/139

What a song from David in this Psalm from the Bible, God knows us, He created us. Let Him lead you! I love so many of the Psalms that David wrote, He loved and trusted God! He had great faith and love! His songs show that love and trust! What a blessing! God knows us! We are made in His image! We are called for a holy calling to be lead by Him! To do His will! To sing His praises! He made each of us, we are souls from God! Choose life!
