In my previous post in this series, I looked (a little) at Psalm 119 as a prayer. Here are the last three verses of that Psalm. They are mostly a petition to God, hence a prayer.
Psalm 119:174 I have longed for your salvation, Yahweh.
Your law is my delight.
175 Let my soul live, that I may praise you.
Let your ordinances help me.
176 I have gone astray like a lost sheep.
Seek your servant, for I don’t forget your commandments. (World English Bible, public domain)
Thanks for reading.
Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I mostly use the World English Bible (WEB), because is public domain. I am grateful.
Very comforting. Reminds me that Jesus is the Good Shepherd.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Kerry i am.
ReplyDeleteAlthough my son is a very good child … If only we could get OUR CHILDREN to say, "Your law is my delight!"
ReplyDeleteOr if they would only say it spontaneously. I guess we need to set the example of doing that.
