NLICC WOMEN’S UPDATE 05.13.22
Focus for May: Intimate love
“Even before a word is on my tongue,
behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.
You hem me in, behind and before,
and lay your hand upon me.
Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
it is high; I cannot attain it.”
Psalm 139:4-6
QUESTION OF THE MONTH
How should the knowledge that God knows our thoughts before they are spoken and that he goes before and behind us change the way we should live our life?
If you feel so led, please send your response to wm@nlicc.org.
Please respond under 700 words. We look forward to hearing from you!
