—Psalm 119:9-16
by: Kristin Camenga.
Just as New Year’s resolutions are hard to keep, it can be hard to continue living the way God wants us to live. Making the first choice to follow God may be finished, but we must make the same choice every day, every hour. The psalmist also struggles with persevering in following God, and finds God’s words and commands necessary for this battle. The verbs that are used to describe how the psalmist interacts with God’s Word show us how we, too, can immerse ourselves in Scripture: recite, rejoice, study, reflect, delight (NLT). Which verbs will you practice today?
