One-minute read.

If we never struggled, we would never turn to God. The psalmist, having faced his mortality, realizes he has no power over life and death. Because of the author’s realization, he turns to the Lord and meditates on his wondrous works: the rising and setting sun, the breath of a newborn baby, the sounds of nature, and so much more.
Learning the ways of the Lord through His Word opens our eyes to the miraculous nature of our Creator. Meditating on God’s promises helps us implement them in our lives, overcome adversity, and discover the victory found only in the Savior.
God’s word acts like a tiller on the soil of our hearts. Cultivating and preparing the soil, scripture reveals the weeds that we need to pull from our soul and prepares it for planting the Lord’s precepts, which then blossom and bloom into extraordinary acts of love. Without the seeds of forgiveness, grace, and mercy, we would never become better; bitter roots would bind us in misery.
Ask the Lord to open your eyes to the meaning of His Word. Seek to understand the scriptures and transform your life in ways you never imagined. Only divine engagement can help you fulfill your God given purpose. Live fully in the Savior.
Prayer:
Lord,
Thank You, Lord, for guiding us to Your Word and allowing us to experience Your wondrous works. Please help us understand Your precepts and put them into practice in our lives.
IJNIP. Amen
