One of the key points of Psalm 139 is that there is no place where God is not. There is no place where we can go to get away from God, this side of Hell that is. This fact is intended to be both a comfort and a point of fear and conviction. We were are in need of comfort it is a reminder that we are not alone. We are in the midst of great battles and struggles it tells us that He stands before us, beside us and behind us. We we need strength it tell us that we can have it in a moments notice and that He will carry us through it all.
On the other hand the fact that God is always with us should also provide us with conviction for the things we do wrong. It should be a reason we choose to not do things. The idea that God will see us doing it is a good enough reason for us not to do it.
I hope that today you allow the reality of God always being there to sink in. I pray that you will allow that truth to either comfort you or convict you or both.
