I was meditating on Psalm 119:27. It says, “Make me understand the way of Your precepts; so shall I meditate on Your wonderful works.” I was wondering what the Hebrew word for way was. Then my eyes glanced to the left in my Amplified Bible. Verse 15 says, “…have respect to Your ways (the paths of life marked out by Your law).”

His paths of life are clearly written down for us to follow as we read and observe God’s word. Verse 17 in the Amplified says, “…I will observe Your word (hearing, receiving, loving, and obeying it).”

One of my mentees asked some serious questions yesterday about her life. I answered them with the gospel. Then I asked if she wanted to receive Jesus as her Savior. She said “sure” and so I reiterated it in another way. Then wrote out a prayer she could put into her own words. Her reply was “but I have done bad things ~ He won’t want me.”
