The Life I Owe

¹The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the works of his hands.

I’ve always loved the sunset. It never fails to put a smile on my face, believing that God painted it with His own hands to remind me of His unfailing love. So whenever I see this kind of scene outside my window, I am always amazed and awed by the intricate beauty of God’s creations. By the way, I personally took the pictures.

⁷The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving the soul.

The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy, making wise the simple.

⁸The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart.

The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.

⁹The fear of the LORD is pure, enduring forever.

The ordinances of the LORD are sure and altogether righteous.

¹⁰They are more precious than gold, than much pure gold.

They are sweeter than honey, than honey from the comb.

¹¹By them is your servant warned; in keeping them there is great reward.

It’s hard, I know. But it is God Himself who writes His commands in my heart so that I may live by them everyday – to trust, hope, and love. To live in order to please God and do this more and more through His unfailing love that surrounds me.

¹⁴May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart

be pleasing in your sight O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.
