This morning I arrived (once again) at Psalm 119:73-79. I don’t remember what verses I selected the last time I was here. That’s OK. Here’s what’s tugging at my heart this time:

1. I want their support.

They that fear thee
will be glad when they see me;
because I have hoped in thy word.

Let those that fear thee
turn unto me,
and those that have known thy testimonies.

2. I need God’s mercy.

Let, I pray thee, thy merciful kindness
be for my comfort….

Let thy tender mercies come unto me,
that I may live:
for thy law is my delight.

3. I need a sound heart.

Let my heart be sound
in thy statutes;
that I be not ashamed.

Thou art my portion, O Lord:
I have said that I would keep thy words.

I thought on my ways,
and turned my feet unto thy testimonies.

I made haste,
and delayed not to keep thy commandments.

The earth, O Lord, is full of thy mercy:
teach me thy statutes.

Psalm 119:57-64
