Psalm 119:164-168 (NIVUK)
164 Seven times a day I praise you
for your righteous laws.
165 Great peace have those who love your law,
and nothing can make them stumble.
166 I wait for your salvation, Lord,
and I follow your commands.
167 I obey your statutes,
for I love them greatly.
168 I obey your precepts and your statutes,
for all my ways are known to you.
Psalm 119 is a mighty Psalm dedicated to God’s Law. Here, the Psalmist delights in their purpose – these are not arbitrary rules and regulations, but God, who knows us inside out, has designed them so that by following them we will find peace, not just peace but great peace.
Thank you Father that you want the best for us, that you have shown us the way to peace.
