Psalms‬ ‭119‬:‭57‬-‭64‬…Knowing God

 “The Lord is my portion; I have promised to keep your words. I have sought your favor with all my heart; be gracious to me according to your promise. I thought about my ways and turned my steps back to your decrees. I hurried, not hesitating to keep your commands. Though the ropes of the wicked were wrapped around me, I did not forget your instruction. I rise at midnight to thank you for your righteous judgments. I am a friend to all who fear you, to those who keep your precepts. Lord, the earth is filled with your faithful love; teach me your statutes.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭119‬:‭57‬-‭64‬ ‭CSB‬‬

Read Context

The Lord is my portion…how incredible that God lets us know Him, that He desires to know us!  How amazing that He gives us Himself!!!

all who fear you, to those who keep your precepts… to know God is to love Him, to love Him is to obey.  That is sad to consider because it means that I don’t know or love God, when I choose to do what I want over what God desires.
