“The Way To Happiness” — Psalm 119:1-8

1) I order my life in integrity and I am guided by God’s word.
For it is written:
“You’re only truly happy when you walk in total integrity, walking in the light of God’s word.”

2) Joy infuses every part of my being as I keep Your ways with my whole heart, always seeking to do only what pleases you.
For it is written:
“What joy overwhelms everyone who keeps the ways of God, those who seek him as their heart’s passion! They’ll never do what’s wrong but will always choose the paths of the Lord.”

3) Your laws give me direction and I follow them all, because I trust that You have clearly outlined the best path for my life.
For it is written:
“God has prescribed the right way to live: obeying his laws with all our hearts.” 

4) It is my earnest desire to bring you glory and not shame with my life, for your laws inspire me to live righteously.
For it is written:
“I long for my life to bring you glory as I follow each and every one of your holy precepts! Then I’ll never be ashamed, for I take strength from all your commandments.”

5) I let a spirit of gratitude inform my will, and I walk faithfully in step with you, trusting You to finish the good work You have begun in me.
For it is written:
“I will give my thanks to you from a heart of love and truth. And every time I learn more of your righteous judgments, I will be faithful to all that your word reveals— so don’t ever give up on me!”

The Abundant Life — Psalm 119:17-24

For it is written:
“Let me, your servant, walk in abundance of life that I may always live to obey your truth. Open my eyes to see the miracle-wonders hidden in your word.”

2) Because life is short and I don’t have my own wisdom for daily living, I seek Your guidance first and foremost with a passionate desire, as much as my next breath!
For it is written:
“My life on earth is so brief, so tutor me in the ways of your wisdom. I am continually consumed by these irresistible longings, these cravings to obey your every commandment!”

3) I know sometimes Your ways of holy living seem foolish to those who are considered leaders and experts; but I choose to remain confident that You guide my decisions in the best direction. I know You will reward my faithfulness to Your laws and my desire to always please You.
For it is written:
“Your displeasure rests with those who are arrogant, who think they know everything; you rebuke the rebellious who refuse your laws. Don’t let them mock and scorn me for obeying you. For even if the princes and my leaders choose to criticize me, I will continue to serve you and walk in your plans for my life.”

4) I find great joy in taking the advice of Your words and following their light. Your words give me life! They completely satisfy my heart! For it is written:
“Your commandments are my counselors; your word is my light and delight!”
