God holds us fast

“The soul is in God, and God in the soul,just like the fish is in the sea and the seain the fish.”         St Catherine of Siena

You have searched me, Lord,
    and you know me.
 You know when I sit and when I rise;
    you perceive my thoughts from afar.
 You discern my going out and my lying down;
    you are familiar with all my ways.
 Before a word is on my tongue
    you, Lord, know it completely.
You hem me in behind and before,
    and you lay your hand upon me.
 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
    too lofty for me to attain. 

If I ride the wings of the morning,
    if I dwell by the farthest oceans,
 even there your hand will guide me,
    and your strength will support me. Psalm 139

Psalm 139.9, Grande Ronde Valley, La Grande OR
