Psalm 119 Verses 1-8
Blessed And Happy Are The Righteous
Personal Translation<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 Blessed by The Lord are the blameless. They walk circumspect
for their hearts are in tune with Him. They respond favorably to His Words,
acting on them accordingly. Yes they are the Pure in Heart.
2 Happy are those who keep The Lord\u2019s instructions \u2013
they shall be Blessed and favored by Him.
3 Those who observe His Ways and Seek Him wholeheartedly \u2013
they do no wrong because they follow in His footsteps. Yes they have Joy.
4 for He counsels us to follow His Words carefully. Privileges are for
the diligent.
5 I wish to always be faithful, reflecting and acting on Your Words
6 Then I will never be ashamed when I consider them.
7 This shall be my thanks to You, respecting Your Perfect Laws.
8 And You will never leave me. Faithful God.
I will try to live worthy of that.

Yes Your Word Is a Lamp to My Feet.

Loving Him Takes Diligence<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It takes diligence to love The Lord
for our hearts to be in one accord.
Our flesh wants to give in resistance to sin.
We make exceptions without reflection
on certain words we think we\u2019ve learnt.
Yes to really love Scripture and be a Picture
of Jesus who came to Free us
is to have some resistance in those instants \u2013
when things appeal are we for real?
With fervent desire or do we want to retire
just for a moment\u2026..a day\u2026..
to have our way instead of His Way?
It\u2019s just too hard, it tastes like lard
that moment, that day, along life\u2019s way?
To truly love His Words
is to practice those we think we\u2019ve learned.
Without exceptions, those are regressions
from His Words of Life, be a little contrite.
For to walk in His Favor, there is no blessing greater
Except the Rapture, don\u2019t let sin zap ya.
Do you want to be ready, keep your steps steady.
Live for His approval, not your own
when you want to take a roam.
Continue to feed on His Words, the sweetest heard.
Continue to Act on them and be Truly His Friend.
Yes our flesh complains and sighs
this should be no surprise.
It takes diligence to love The Lord
and keep your heart in one accord.
