Prayer Offered for February 27, 2017

Let us center ourselves in God’s presence by praying from Psalm 139.

O God, You examine me and know me.

You know if I am standing or sitting.

You understand my thoughts from afar.

My journeys and my rest You know.

With all my ways You are familiar….

It was You who created my inmost self

And knit me together in my mother’s womb.

For all these mysteries I thank You:

For the wonder of myself; for the wonder of Your works….

O God, how hard it is to grasp Your thoughts.

How impossible to count them.

I could no more count them than I could the sand.

And suppose I could, You would still be with me….

O God, examine me and know my heart.

Probe me and know my thoughts.

Lead me on a safe path,

And guide me in the way that is everlasting.–AMEN.
