The Word Dwelling Richly
Psalm 119:9-16
How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to your word. I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you. Praise be to you, LORD; teach me your decrees. With my lips I recount all the laws that come from your mouth. I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches. I meditate on your precepts and consider your ways. I delight in your decrees; I will not neglect your word.

This week's sermon emphasized the importance of letting God's Word dwell richly within us. Today's passage from Psalms echoes this sentiment. How can you make more room for Scripture in your daily life? Consider ways to engage with the Bible beyond just reading - perhaps memorizing verses, meditating on a passage throughout the day, or discussing it with a friend. Pray for a deeper hunger for God's Word and for His truth to transform your mind and heart.
