Stirred By The Scriptures

My thoughts return to Psalm 119 today. It is the longest Psalm in the Bible, 176 verses, so I have a lot of material to look at.  In verse forty-one we read:
“May your unfailing love come to me, O Lord, your salvation according to your promise; then I will answer the one who taunts me, for I trust in your word.”

God’s love that will never fail, the salvation he so graciously provides are given to me through no merit of my own.  My responsibility is to trust in his word.  We live in a day and age where we have begun to wonder where we place our trust and hope.  Now more than ever I pray we are looking only to Jesus for the answer.
