In Psalm 119, alone, there are many examples of what God's word can do for us. In reading it today I was reminded that His Word is the most important thing we could ever carry with us in life. If we are alone, God's Word can take the place of a friend. If we are afraid, His Word can calm our fears and give us hope. When we are lost we can read God's Word and it will give us guidance and light up our path. His Word is sweet to the taste, just hearing it can give us wisdom. The Word revives the soul and gives us energy to get back up and face the future. Through His Word God can encourage, give life and protect us. It is absolutely amazing everything God's Word is to us! No wonder so many people are lost, afraid, lonely and tired. If we aren't reading the Bible and living by God's Word then we are poor. God First Friends, I ask you to open your bible today and find more examples of the power of God's word in your life. But most importantly I want to encourage you to be strong and confident in His Word. Trust in the power of the Bible and live by God's Word daily.
