"165 Great peace have they who love your law,
and nothing can make them stumble." - Psalm 119
i often overlook the great gift of gods law. it becomes just one more thing i own to myself and take for granted.
i hate the feeling of entitlement. it is the most disgusting thing in the whole world. lord, you bless and you take blessings away. 'my' money or 'my' time are not actually mine. god has given everyone so much. i dont deserve anything except a fiery eternity of pain in hell.
knowing that, everything in life becomes a privilege, a bonus, a gift. my body, my abilities, my possessions, my relationships are all gifts. everything i see, hear, taste, touch, smell is a gift. every second becomes meaningful. joy becomes the only natural response to all these gifts. praise is in order to a god that gifts so freely. worries waste away, sorrows seem silly. the things that really dont matter slide past. nothing can make me stumble
thank you for your law, god. how amazing it is to live here on a broken earth, let alone the life promised in a perfect heaven
