Psalm 19 ESV.

Just pondering over Psalm 19.   So many verses that thrilled my heart.


1:   The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims          His handiwork.

2:   Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge.


7:   The law of the LORD is perfect,   reviving the soul;
       The testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple;

8:    The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart
       The commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes

9:    The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring forever;
        The rules of the LORD are true, and righteous altogether.


7-9 basically covers every issue and desire of life:

         Law - Perfect, reviving the soul                        }
         Testimony -True,  making wise the simple       }
         Precepts - Right, rejoicing the heart                 }
         Commandment - Pure,  enlightening the eyes  } OF the LORD
          Fear - Clean, enduring forever;                         }
          Rules  - True,   righteous altogether.                }

Nothing was of our creation - all came from the LORD God Almighty

All seems to indicate it's a gift -  in fact 10 declares their value.

10.     More to  be desired are they than GOLD, even much fine God
          Sweeter also than honey, and the honeycomb.    

Our prayer as a result of God's great care for us.
14.     Let the words of my mouth, and the meditations of my heart,
          be acceptable in YOUR sight, O LORD, my ROCK and my
          Redeemer.    


I LOVE these verses.   Thank you LORD.
