1344Psalm 119:20
My soul
breaks with longing for Your judgments at all times.

Once upon a
time, Jonathan Edwards, an American theologian poured out his heart as he faced
with a moment to re-look at the Bible or Face the Book. He said, "More
than any book, I love the Bible more, and this feeling grows in my heart. Many
times when reading it, I feel that every words touch my heart. I feel the
harmony between something in my heart with the beautiful and powerful words of
the Bible. I see so much light that comes through every sentence, like tasting
delicious food, that I stopped reading it".
“I often spend a lot of times to meditate a
sentence from the Bible, just to see the miracle inside, but actually every
sentence in the Bible is filled with the miracle.”
Today’s
bible reading also reminds us of how the psalmist poured out his great love of
God. The words he used show how great his love of God is. “I have rejoiced in
the way of Your testimonies, As much as in all riches...I will not forget Your
word... My soul breaks
with longing For Your judgments at all times... My soul keeps Your testimonies, And I love them
exceedingly.”
Expression
from the psalmist and Edwards show how important, useful and good word of God
for our lives is. So in the middle of the pale of our spirituality, our fading
discipline and our drying longing, be still to look back at the Bible or Face the
Book. Let's ask God to put a deep longing for the more intimate with God
through His Word.
The Bible brings you to grow and love
God more and more.
