My Daily Meditation - Psalm 119: 97-104

How can I express how I feel? for I meditate upon it all the day your law is ever with me always wisdom comes from what your law says My teachers can't compare to it for I meditate daily on your law even the elderly don't understand in thy word I have seen no flaw The word has kept me from evil making sure I'm right when I walk going in the straight direction obeying always what's God's talk Tasting God's word is so sweet even honey can't even compare I learn understanding from God to leave falsehood and any snare (This is my " Psalm 119 project" which I began to write a couple of years ago, so this is the thirteenth poem of twenty-two poems I've written over that time to cover all of Psalm 119.)

Hi Gordon, You are doing a great job with the Psalms 119 project. This portion resonates with me a lot because I've read this part a lot. Like always, your faith is a beacon of light here on the soup( it is for me). PS, I've seen you on the soup for a while now. But to be honest, Beth( RIP) is the one that led me to your page. And for that, I am truly grateful. When you have the time, can you read. New Beginnings and Missionary And The Bum-Alexis

Hi Alexis, Thanks for your kinds words of encouragement on my Psalm 119 project, That's interesting it was Beth that lead you to my page, I only got to know Beth for a few months but we were great friends having exchanged emails and it was such a shock and loss to hear of her passing. I will read the pieces you mentioned over the weekend, take care and stay blessed, Gordon
