Psalm 119:92 "If your law had not been my delight, I would have perished in my affliction." Psalm 119:105 "Your word is a lamp to my feet a light to my path". I love reading Psalm 119. It's long, and keeps pointing the reader to love, living Gods way. For me when I actively started turning from my old ways and trying my best to walk in love and obedience to Gods ways, my life got infinitely better. I used to be plagued with bitterness when someone would offend me, or anxiety when I did something the world said was ok, I knew was not the Bible ways. Now, I truly embrace simply being the love of Jesus, trying my best to be a good steward of my life. I know full well, that I will fail. Living a Godly life doesn't happen istaniously and certainly doesn't happen perfectly. We all sin and fall short of the glory of God. For me, when I keep turning from my sinful ways and keep turning to Gods word, it helps me live my fullest life in my here and know. It's not a perfect path. It took me 29 years of trying before I could quit drinking for more then 99 days in a row. Praise God with His help, I'm clean now. Hopefully will stay that way. When I concentrate on the love and forgiveness of Jesus and read the Bible regularly it gives me strength and song so I don't have to perish in my affliction. We all have issues that can take our attention away from God. Today I pray you may identify the things, in your life that are hindering you, leave them in your past and press forward in Christ Jesus!! ๐๐ธ๐๐ฆ ❤️ Onward Christian soldier!!
