Of his own will
begat he us
with the word of truth,
that we should be
a kind of firstfruits
of his creatures.James 1:17-27
Firstfruits — that’s part of my calling, part of my life purpose, part of my reason for being.

Thy testimonies that thou hast commanded
are righteous and very faithful.Thy word is very pure:
therefore thy servant loveth it.Psalm 119:137-144
I can live by the precepts and commands of God’s Word.
Because of their faithfulness and purity.
Even when they don’t make sense to me.
Or, even worse, when they seem dangerous to live by.
I want to so love God’s Word that I will completely build my life on it.
It’s a safe thing to do.
And smart, too.
