God Hedges Me In
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. If you know Psalm 139, you know it’s filled with incredible encouragement. Psalm 139 teaches us that God’s hand is on us before we were even born; where can we go from his presence? Nowhere! He’s constantly with us. Every verse is like a blessing. Even verse 5 where it says, “[God], You hem me from behind and before, and You lay your hand upon me.” Man, I love that. Because yes, God has hemmed me in with this wheelchair; yes, he’s hemmed me in with paralysis; I am hemmed in and there are many things I cannot do. But I can rejoice in the Lord. Why? Because He lays his hand upon me. And you cannot receive a bigger, better blessing than that! Do you feel confined or hemmed in today? Don’t feel bad. For God has hemmed you in so that He might lay his hand upon you. It’s the best part of Psalm 139, and it’s your blessing today.
