Your Word Is a Lamp to My Feet
Blessed
are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of the Lord!
Blessed are those who keep his testimonies, who seek him with their whole
heart, who also do no wrong, but walk in his ways!
You have commanded your precepts to be kept diligently. Oh that my ways may be
steadfast in keeping your statutes!
Then I shall not be put to shame, having my eyes fixed on all your
commandments. I will praise you with an upright heart, when I learn your
righteous rules.
I will keep your statutes; do not utterly forsake me!
How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it, according to your word.
With
my whole heart I seek you; let me not wander from your commandments!
I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.
Blessed
are you, O Lord; teach me your statutes!
With my lips I declare all the rules of your mouth. In the way of your
testimonies I delight as much as in all riches.
I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways.
I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word.
A heart
that longs and follows after our Lord and His Word is what we long and pray
for.
His Word
teaches us about our Father and we learn to delight in Him as we learn to
delight in His Word.
Many follow
and do out of duty but as journey through His word we learn of Him and start to
like Him and enjoy spending time with Him.
