Scripture this week from the Common English Bible:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Psalm 139: 1-6, 13-18<\/strong>
2 Corinthians 4: 1 – 15<\/strong><\/p>\n

Psalm 139:1-6
For the music leader. Of David. A song.
139 Lord, you have examined me.
You know me.
2 You know when I sit down and when I stand up.
Even from far away, you comprehend my plans.
3 You study my traveling and resting.
You are thoroughly familiar with all my ways.
4 There isn\u2019t a word on my tongue, Lord,
that you don\u2019t already know completely.
5 You surround me\u2014front and back.
You put your hand on me.
6 That kind of knowledge is too much for me;
it\u2019s so high above me that I can\u2019t reach it.<\/p>\n

Psalm 139:13-18
13 You are the one who created my innermost parts;
you knit me together while I was still in my mother\u2019s womb.
14 I give thanks to you that I was marvelously set apart.
Your works are wonderful\u2014I know that very well.
15 My bones weren\u2019t hidden from you
when I was being put together in a secret place,
when I was being woven together in the deep parts of the earth.
16 Your eyes saw my embryo,
and on your scroll every day was written that was being formed for me,
before any one of them had yet happened.
17 God, your plans are incomprehensible to me!
Their total number is countless!
18 If I tried to count them\u2014they outnumber grains of sand!
If I came to the very end\u2014I\u2019d still be with you.<\/p>\n

2 Corinthians 4:1-15
4 This is why we don\u2019t get discouraged, given that we received this ministry in the same way that we received God\u2019s mercy. 2 Instead, we reject secrecy and shameful actions. We don\u2019t use deception, and we don\u2019t tamper with God\u2019s word. Instead, we commend ourselves to everyone\u2019s conscience in the sight of God by the public announcement of the truth. 3 And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are on the road to destruction. 4 The god of this age has blinded the minds of those who don\u2019t have faith so they couldn\u2019t see the light of the gospel that reveals Christ\u2019s glory. Christ is the image of God.<\/p>\n

5 We don\u2019t preach about ourselves. Instead, we preach about Jesus Christ as Lord, and we describe ourselves as your slaves for Jesus\u2019 sake. 6 God said that light should shine out of the darkness. He is the same one who shone in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God\u2019s glory in the face of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n

Physical bodies and eternal glory
7 But we have this treasure in clay pots so that the awesome power belongs to God and doesn\u2019t come from us. 8 We are experiencing all kinds of trouble, but we aren\u2019t crushed. We are confused, but we aren\u2019t depressed. 9 We are harassed, but we aren\u2019t abandoned. We are knocked down, but we aren\u2019t knocked out.<\/p>\n

10 We always carry Jesus\u2019 death around in our bodies so that Jesus\u2019 life can also be seen in our bodies. 11 We who are alive are always being handed over to death for Jesus\u2019 sake so that Jesus\u2019 life can also be seen in our bodies that are dying. 12 So death is at work in us, but life is at work in you.<\/p>\n

13 We have the same faithful spirit as what is written in scripture: I had faith, and so I spoke. We also have faith, and so we also speak. 14 We do this because we know that the one who raised the Lord Jesus will also raise us with Jesus, and he will bring us into his presence along with you. 15 All these things are for your benefit. As grace increases to benefit more and more people, it will cause gratitude to increase, which results in God\u2019s glory.<\/p>\n
