My Heart

 Stands In Awe

Of Your Words

 

 

 

Princes persecute me without cause; but my heart stands in awe of your words. I rejoice at your word like one who finds great spoil. I hate and abhor falsehood, but I love your law. Seven times a day I praise you for your righteous ordinances. Great peace have those who love your law; nothing can make them stumble. I hope for your salvation, O LORD, and I fulfill your commandments. My soul keeps your decrees; I love them exceedingly. I keep your precepts and decrees, for all my ways are before you.

 

Psalm 119:161-168

 

The psalmist delighted in God’s Word. He stood in awe of it, rejoiced over it, loved it, and obeyed it. He found great peace and hope in the Word.

 

One measure of our love for God

 is what we’re willing to do

 to share His Word with others.
