WORD ALIVE … Bringing the relevance of God’s Word to our everyday life ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MY LIFES AN OPEN BOOK BEFORE YOU, O LORD (Vol 2; No 251) “Your words all add up to the sum total: Truth. Your righteous decisions are eternal. Ive been slandered unmercifully by the politicians, but my awe at your words keeps me stable. Im ecstatic over what you say, like one who strikes it rich. I hate lies — cant stand them! — But I love what you have revealed. Seven times each day I stop and shout praises for the way you keep everything running right. For those who love what you reveal, everything fits — no stumbling around in the dark for them. I wait expectantly for your salvation; God, I do what you tell me. My soul guards and keeps all your instructions — oh, how much I love them! I follow your directions, abide by your counsel; my lifes an open book before you. Let my cry come right into your presence, God; provide me with the insight that comes only from your Word. Give my request your personal attention; rescue me on the terms of your promise. Let praise cascade off my lips; after all, youve taught me the truth about life! And let your promises ring from my tongue; every order youve given is right. Put your hand out and steady me since Ive chosen to live by your counsel. Im homesick, God, for your salvation; I love it when you show yourself! Invigorate my soul so I can praise you well; use your decrees to put iron in my soul. And should I wander off like a lost sheep — seek me! Ill recognize the sound of your voice. Psalms 119:160-176 THE MESSAGE
