More Precious than Gold- Sweeter Than Honey

Psalm 19

Good Morning, Lord!  I exalt You today with David because:
The perfect law- revives the soul.
The statutes-are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
The precepts- are right, bringing joy to the heart.
The commands- are clear, giving insight for living. NLT
Reverence for the LORD- is pure, lasting forever. NLT
The ordinances-sure and altogether righteous.
  • They are more precious 
  • more desirable than gold, even the finest gold or silver
  • sweeter than honey, even honey dripping from the comb
A warning to your servant
Great reward for those who obey them. 

I find it interesting, Lord, that folks are saying that if you suffer from severe allergies from pollen,  eat a tablespoon of local honey a day and it will reduce your reaction to minimal since the bees work in local pollen to make it.
In this psalm, David is saying that if I delight in, and study Your word each day, It can keep me from sinning against you and make my life better too!

Lord, my prayer and praise to You this morning is the same as David's!
"How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults.  Keep your servant from deliberate sins! Don't let them control me. Then I will be free of guilt and innocent of great sin. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O LORD, my rock and my redeemer."
AMEN!
