It was good to receive my “Birthday Bible verse” from my friend Mary Bea Miller.
Psalm 119:73-80
“With Your very own hands You formed me; Now breathe Your wisdom over me so I can understand You. Give me sense to heed Your laws. When others see how You treat me, let them be glad, for Your words are entwined within my heart. Lord, I know that Your judgments are always right. Even when it’s me You judge, You’re still faithful and true. Now let Your loving-kindness comfort me, just as You promised. Surround me with Your tender mercies that I may live. For Your law is my delight. Comfort me so I can really live; Your revelation is the tune that makes me dance. Let the fast-talking tricksters be exposed as frauds; They tried to sell me a bill of goods, but I kept my mind fixed on You. Join us together, all of us who love You. Make us into a lovely unified reflection of You, as we follow Your instruction. Let my heart be whole. Help me to love Your every wish and I will never have to be ashamed.”
It prompted me to return to some other good words that have become important to me recently:
I want to be a trail-blazer for the ordinary, everyday life.
