The Psalm
Psalm 119:161–168 (CSB)
161 Princes have persecuted me without cause, but my heart fears only your word.162 I rejoice over your promise like one who finds vast treasure.
163 I hate and abhor falsehood, but I love your instruction.
164 I praise you seven times a day for your righteous judgments.
165 Abundant peace belongs to those who love your instruction; nothing makes them stumble.
166 LORD, I hope for your salvation and carry out your commands.
167 I obey your decrees and love them greatly.
168 I obey your precepts and decrees, for all my ways are before you.
The Prayer
My Living Word
All of your word
- points to you
- because it points through
- your only begotten Son.
So I pray that your Spirit
- whom dwells in me
- will guide me
- and bring me
- all the way home
- to you.
Praise your name
- my Father
- my Savior
- my Spirit.
Amen.
