TODAY’S WORD…

.

How I long for Your saving help, O Lord!
I find happiness in Your law.

.

Give me life, so that I may praise You;
may Your instructions help me.

.

– Psalm 119:174-175 (GNT)

REFLECTION…

.

We must desire, with all our hearts, mind and soul,

the grace and strength which enable us to lift up our prayers,

and that the Lord would receive and notice them.

.

We must desire to know more of God in Christ;

to know more of the doctrines of the Word,

and the duties of religion,

and we must do so with all humility.

.

Let us look up to God,

so that the hand that made us may help do His will with joy in our hearts,

and also help us give praise to our Lord and Creator.

.

How I long for Your saving help, O Lord!
I find happiness in Your law.

Give me life, so that I may praise You;
may Your instructions help me.

Does my heart, cleansed in Christ’s blood, make the words of these verses my own?

Is God’s Word the rule of my faith, and the law that I observe?

Do I use it to converse with Christ as I seek His guidance?

.

How happy is the soul that delights in and lives God’s Law!

.
