Psalm 119 - Beth (vs. 9-16) & Gimel (vs. 17-24)

Well, I did exactly what I was hoping I wouldn't do. I forgot to read my psalm for yesterday and make my reflection. It just gos to show you that something as simple as sitting down and listening to God's Word for just a short period of time is something that can get left undone pretty easily. You get caught up with what's going on in your life, or you get caught up with the things you are doing, and this small thing slips into the background.

So, today I will reflect on the second two parts of Psalm 119. It is fitting that I'm going through this part of the psalms right now. It's all about how the psalmist wants to observe God's commandments and constantly meditate on them. It's hard. It's hard to stay that focused on what God commands and actually carry that out in your life. The only thing I can ask at times is for God "deal bountifully with your servant."
