When your word is opened, it gives light and understanding. (Ps. 119:130)
The Psalm reading for tomorrow comes from Psalm 119 and is focusing on the truth of God’s Word and how Scripture sheds light on our journey. In Romans, Paul is systematically presenting an explanation of Christianity. It is in a lot of long sentences and complicated reasoning. One of his basic premises is that the Law was designed by God and given to us to help us live a good life, so it is good. Our selfish, self-centeredness gets in the way and takes the law and makes rules to judge our self and others. In Psalm 119 David, who lived way before Paul, thanks God for Scripture. It is the light on our path when our eyes are confused by sin within and without. Amy Grant sings this psalm. Enjoy!
