For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made. [PSALM 139:13]
Psalm 139 is one of the great psalms of scripture, written by King David yet as is the whole of the Bible, divinely inspired by God.
We discover that Our God is acquainted with all of our ways, even from the time we are in our mother’s womb. For God formed our inward parts. My frame (or body) was not hidden from Him when I was made in that secret place.
God is spirit and is omni-present. Therefore even if I can take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, there God’s hand will lead me.
Now that I believe I often think of myself as a pilgrim, passing through this world, destined for an amazing new heaven and earth. The apostle Paul touches on this truth in his first letter to the growing church in Corinth.
This was a psalm special to my younger brother Dave, who is now with Yeshua in paradise. At Dave’s funeral I shared from this writing and also played a rendition of this psalm by the Sons’ of Korah.
I have also included an Impressionist like painting by my brother Dave. Drawing from verses in Psalm 136 (not 139) where the psalmist gives thanks to the Creator of the universe, for He is good and His mercies endure forever.
Be encouraged in knowing that if you place your faith in Yeshua, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, you will always be safe in His care!

About the Author
Nick Dalgety is a Kiwi born in Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand. In recent times my wife and I have made Nelson in the top of the South Island home.
My day job involves working with people making a living from land and sea. In my spare time my passion is taking pictures that celebrate what is iconic about Aotearoa New Zealand. Inevitably this involves discovering amazing people, in their special place making and doing what they do best.
When travelling overseas, I often seek out similar experiences. I created Provenance101 to share these experiences.
1: THE GARDEN OF EDEN
The Lord God planted a garden toward the east, in Eden; and there He placed the man whom He had formed (GENESIS 2:8). God makes known in the first chapter of Genesis a sweeping account of the creation of the earth, the heavens, plants, animals, birds, fish and ultimately Man. God then turns His attention…
2: MAN TO CULTIVATE
Then the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden of Eden to cultivate it and keep it (GENESIS 2:15). Right from the start God intended that Man have real purpose in life. Here Man was to cultivate the land and care for the creatures that inhabited the Garden. There is real…
3: NOT GOOD TO BE ALONE
Then the Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone; I will make him a helper suitable for him” (GENESIS 2:18). Relationships. As a Christian I believe in one God yet three Persons in nature, namely Father, Son and Holy Spirit – a truth revealed overtime in the Bible. Therefore relationship…
4: MAN AND HIS WIFE HID
They heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden (GENESIS 3:8). Adam and Eve are together for the scripture says they heard the Lord God.…
5: ENMITY BETWEEN THE SEEDS
The Lord God said to the serpent, “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; He shall bruise you on the head, and you shall bruise Him on the heel” (GENESIS 3:15). Here we witness the greatest calamity of Mankind. Adam and Eve chose to disobey an…

Hi there! Thanks for sharing thoughts. Psalm 139 is so special for all of us. Knowing there is a God who knows us intimately – not surprising given He created us! And He wants you and I to come to know Him, through His Son. Take care, Nick D
