Scripture Sunday: Psalm 19: 8

Every Sunday on this site I will take some time to look at a passage from the Bible that I like and think is great... though they could obviously be presented by themselves without further mention, I will throw my two cents in on what the verse(s) mean to me.

Today we look at a refreshing and reassuring Bible verse from the Book of Psalms. It is from Psalm 19:

"The law of the Lord is perfect, refreshing the soul. The decree of the Lord if trustworthy, bringing wisdom to the simple." (Psalm 19:8)

Here we know that the Lord will never betray us, He will not make a mistake that hurts us. His law is perfect, and if we let it, it will refresh our lives. If we have the right attitude about His teachings, it will enrich us, not bring us down or make us look at things as a burden.

We know also that we can trust the Lord and His teachings, as well as the things He has put in our hearts. No matter how simple we are, how common we think we are, if we are open to the Word of God, it will bring wisdom and hope into our lives.

Let us keep this verse in mind and allow the Lord to refresh our lives, our souls, and our minds.
