Text for the Day -- Psalm 119:105-107
----------
Your word is a lamp to my feet
and a light to my path.
I have sworn an oath and confirmed it,
to observe your righteous ordinances.
I am severely afflicted;
give me life, O LORD, according to your word.
Devotional
----------
In the psalms a certain rhythm often appears. There is an interplay
between declarations of faith and pleas for help, between statements
of commitment to God's word and cries for the gift of life. Notice
the interplay in these verses of the psalm. Does this reflect any of
your ways of praying?
Prayer
-----------------
Give me a love for your teaching and wisdom, gracious Lord. Amen
THE SONG
Thy Word
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.
When I feel afraid,
And think I've lost my way.
Still, You're there right beside me.
Nothing will I fear
As long as You are near;
Please be near me to the end.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path.
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet
And a light unto my path
I will not forget
Your love for me and yet,
My heart forever is wandering.
Jesus by my guide,
And hold me to Your side,
And I will love you to the end.
