I have been reading Psalm 119 recently and again I have been blessed by the Psalmist’s confident trust in the word of God. In verse 56 he is saying: “This is my happy way of life: obeying your commandments!” What a happy life! A life of obeying the commandments of God! What extra terrestrial happiness indeed!
Here is another favorite quote: “Your principles have been the music of my life throughout the years of my pilgrimage” (54).
The word of God makes me dance in exuberant joy as well as causing me to meditate and contemplate on the deeper issues of my existence. “Those who love your law have great peace and do not stumble” (165).
The happy way of life

I like reading your blogs, Erling. A good and godly man’s diary will always make some influence to the hearts of those reading. And so it does to mine. Thanks!

I just want to join Norleif’s comment and state that I’m so agree with his statement. It’s so good to follow you blog, Erling, it’s so much good teaching that both inspires me, challenge me and encourage me to go even further with our Lord. And it gives so much happiness when I experience new sides and more dept in the community together with Him.
Thanks!
