It was the dedication of our latest grandchildren on Sunday. This psalm is a lovely reminder of how precious we all are in God's sight - sometimes easy to forget in the varied circumstances we find ourselves in, no matter what age we are or how long our lives last.

Thats wonderful.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite Psalm too and I love the bit where it talks about "If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,
ReplyDeleteeven there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast" and I have done a few flying to the far sides of the sea in my time and would you believe it, he's still there :)
A lovely post on a profound Psalm ! Coincidentally our pastor's sermon was based on this Psalm this Sunday - The Joy of Being A Child !
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing this, Julia! It's a beautiful Psalm. A friend of mine's grandson had it for his dedication, and she embroidered a large silk wrap for him, with the words of the Psalm all around the edge. I celebrated 27 years of being a believer in Jesus on Thursday, and this Psalm reminds me that even though for me the date of my new beginning was 22nd Sept. 1984, for God it was before I was formed in my mother's womb!!
