REFLECTION…

.

We can only claim to make these words of the Psalmist our own

if and when we spend time, in God’s presence,

and let His Spirit open our heart to gladly receive His Word.

.

Only then will we be able to heartily proclaim

that the instructions of the Lord are perfect,

that His decrees are trustworthy,

that His commandments are right and clear and true and fair.

.

Only then can our heart truly proclaim God’s greatness,

whatever the circumstances that we may find ourselves in.
