Scripture

Psalm 119: 105-112

Sometimes it is good just to read scripture.
Sometimes there is nothing left to say.
Sometimes the power in it hits the spot.
Today is one of those sometimes.
--------------------
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path. I have taken an oath and confirmed it, that I will follow your righteous laws. I have suffered much; preserve my life, O Lord according to your word. Accept, O Lord, the willing praise of my mouth, and teach me your laws. Though I constantly take my life in my hands, I will not forget your law. The wicked have sat a snare for me, but I have not strayed from your precepts. Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart. My heart is set on keeping your decrees to the very end.
