Lent - Day 2

Today I am thankful for His Word. 

Yesterday I was at work and out of NOWHERE I started humming and singing a song we sang when I was in my youth group "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet....and a light unto my path"  All day singing and humming.  Last night after I got dinner into the oven I cracked open my dusty bible study books and the first question had me reading Psalms 119.  I read through the whole thing, I thought it was a bit ironic (ironic - when dealing with God- riiiight Nikki) that Psalm 119:105 is:

Your word is a lamp to my feet
       and a light for my path.

But it wasn't until I finished my whole study - that I realized I still wasn't 'GETTING' it.  I was humming it and liking it - but stop and THINK about it Nikki. 

"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."

His word is going to light my way.  His word is going to teach me where to go, how to live, who to be.  HIS WORD is there to teach me - to show me the way!  DUH!  I am soo thankful that not only do we have the word, we have a God who is very, very patient - giving us time to 'get it' when he lays it out in front of us. 

Thank you God - for waiting for me, for giving me your word, and for your patience.  I'm here, I want to learn. (Job 6:24) "Teach me, and I will be quiet.  Show me where I've been wrong"

Amen.
