There may be some that think I’ve “gone off the deep end” … that I’m just a little weird… but I can truthfully say I LOVE THE BIBLE!! I don’t just like the Bible or appreciate the Bible… I LOVE THE BIBLE!
I’ve been reading Psalm 119 as part of my Bible reading here in Western Montana on vacation and I think I’ve fallen in love with it all over again… In Psalm 119 it is like the Psalmist holds a beautiful, multi-faceted precious diamond – God’s word – up under the light of inspection and slowly turns it so that every incredible facet, every color, every surface is allowed to display its beauty, power and clarity. I’ve been savoring it…relishing it…delighting in it every day. In the next days of my reading I’ll share some of the verses that especially impacted me (sometimes with a comment or two).
Today was no exception… From Psalm 119:49-56 – GOD’S WORD and It’s impact upon ME, MY RESPONSE!
“Remember YOUR WORD to your servant, in which YOU HAVE MADE ME HOPE. This is my comfort in my affliction, that YOUR PROMISE gives me LIFE… When I think of YOUR RULES from of old, I take COMFORT, O Lord… YOUR STATUTES have been MY SONGS in the house of my sojourning… THIS BLESSING HAS FALLEN TO ME, that I have kept YOUR PRECEPTS.”
I urge you to do what I’m doing as I READ through Psalm 119 … REFLECT on each verse and let it lead you to a life-transforming RESPONSE!
