All this joy is mine as I follow your ways! Psalm 119:56 (Passion)
The Word will sustain you under affliction, and enable you to survive ridicule. It gives you a tender heart for the worldly and wicked. The Word furnishes songs of hope and comfort in the still, dark night.
All this happiness and comfort can come from only one thing: keeping the Word of God. When you abide in the will of God, you will find peace and joy unlike anything the world can offer.
Practice is defined as “a customary or habitual performance.” When it becomes your practice to obey God’s ways, the Word becomes an inseparable part of you.
Lord, I will make it my practice to read, meditate upon, and obey Your ways.
