God’s promise

Psalm 119:50 “My comfort in my suffering is this; Your promise preserves my life.” All of us realize our lives on this earth are full of happiness, yet also full of sadness.  We many times physically hurt, mentally hurt and our hearts hurt.  Yet, through all this difficulty we always have the sure promise of the love and faithfulness of our Heavenly Father.  That promise far outweighs all the pain of this earthly life.  That promise fills our lives with peace and contentedness. Have a great weekend.

One thing will never fail

Psalm 119:41 “May your unfailing love come to me, O Lord, your salvation according to your promise.” You and I can find it difficult to understand that God’s unfailing love applies, not to the crowd of Christians or the group of the faithful, but to you and me individually.  His promises, His unfailing love is for and to you.  He has His arms wrapped around you.  He holds your hand.  He carries you.  Why does He care so much for you?  Answer: fold your hands and ask Him.  Open your heart and feel His unfailing love for YOU!  Let your children know this wonderful truth.

Multiple requests

Psalm 119:33p, 34p, 35p, 36p, 37p,38p “Teach me, O Lord…Give me understanding…Direct me…Turn my heart…Turn my eyes away from worthless things…Fulfill your promise…” Fill my heart and soul with Your will, O God.  That is the desire and prayer of every faithful adopted child of our Heavenly Father.  That child is you and me.  A simple prayer—-Have a wonderful day.

Live in freedom

Psalm 119:32 “I run in the path of your commands, for you have set my heart free.” Every Christian lives with the joy of freedom.  God’s ways and expectations for each of us give a freedom in life to live the most contented and joyful life known.  Life is to be led with joy, respect, faithfulness and love.  There are no handcuff rules as are found in all other religions.  Christian hearts are all motivated by love.  What a beautiful way to live.

Understand God

Psalm 119:27 “Let me understand the teaching of your precepts; then I will meditate on your wonders.” Understanding our God is the constant desire of every child of His.  We continually study and read His Word.  We read what others write about our God.  We pray for His wisdom, not the thinking of this world.  We are continually amazed by His power, omniscience, omnipresence.  God is an amazing God.  There is no earthly word to describe Him.  How wonderful it is that He lovingly carries each of us throughout life.
