THE STORY OF JESUS: Psalm 119:97-120
“Oh, how I love your law! I meditate on it all day long.” (Psalm 119:97)
When I spend time with the Lord reading the bible, I usually hear His Voice.
Through the stories or teachings, something connects with me personally.
An insight into my own heart, how I am living, where I am going astray.
Often it doesn’t come right away, I need to spend time with it.
But as I spend time with the Lord in the passage, He speaks.
Not a voice, but insight, understanding, awareness, wisdom.
“Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” (Psalm 119:105)
I love those moments when the light goes on.
It’s an inner ‘Aha’ moment, when pieces start to come together in my mind.
Rarely is it just information about something, it’s usually transformative.
Something that I need to change, or that changes how I view and live life.
It’s like a flashlight, giving me just enough light in an otherwise dark world.
Just enough light for me to know what steps I need to take today.
“My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end.” (Psalm 119:112)
What do you sense the Lord saying to you?
PRAYER
Lord, thank You for the way You give me insight for living. Thank You for speaking to me as I read the bible. Thank You for the light You give me every day.
