Psalms 139:7
Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?
139:7. Whither shall I go from thy Spirit? Not that the psalmist wished to avoid the power of the divine life. Note that the writer makes the matter personal to himself—Whither shall I go? Jehovah is omnipresent to me. Or whither shall I flee from thy presence? No answer comes. From the sight of God he cannot be hidden, but that is not all—from the immediate, actual, constant presence of God he cannot be withdrawn. This makes it dreadful to sin, for we commit treason at the very foot of his throne. His mind is in our mind, himself within ourselves. His Spirit is over our spirit; our presence is ever in his presence.
