Why do I want God’s blessing? For what do I want His generosity?
Why do I want to have life for longer than yesterday? Or today?
“Deal bountifully with thy servant, that I may live, and keep thy word” (Psalm 119:17).
Interesting!
Would I have thought of that reason on my own? I very much doubt it.
But that’s what I have God’s Word for — to make me think of that which I could not think up on my own.
Life so that I can keep His Word, eh?
I wonder what’s in the Spanish Bible….
“Do good to your servant; that I may live, and keep your word.”
