Blessed ones, run to the Father because in His presence is the holy ground where we live a joyful life.
Often, we think of obeying God as difficult. But what if God’s pathway to delight is found in his law and ways? #biblestudy #Psalm 119 #Believe

I’m so happy to contribute to Gracefully Truthful’s new study of Psalm 119 entitled, “Worship XI Day 1 Alef & Bet Psalm 119:1-16.” “What if God’s Laws were the pathway to delight? Far from outdated and confining, the ways of the Lord bring life! Explore the goodness of the Lord in Psalm 119 as we study His ways!” (Gracefullytruthful.com)
How happy are those whose way is blameless, who walk according to the LORD’s instruction! (Psalm 119:1 CSB)
Because of His great love for us, God wants to share His mercy, grace, and kindness with us. (Ephesians 2:4-9) Through Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection, we are cleansed from the stain of sin, and redeemed by grace through faith.
But if our salvation is unearned, what is our role in pursuing a blameless way?

We pursue blamelessness when we meet with God daily in prayer and His Word, where He shares His written revelation. Then, we can choose to “be doers of the word.” (James 1:22)
Living Holy Lives on God’s Pathway to Delight –
God’s Word lights our path so we do not stumble in living delighted, holy lives pleasing Him.
As a once-prodigal daughter, I bought into the idea that a defiled life was fun. I wanted to do what was right in my own eyes, not God’s. The world supports an anti-God life, but this kind of life got me into trouble. I am grateful Jesus loved me so much, He brought me home and shows me how to live joyfully in Him, following His ways.

So how does a young woman keep her way pure? (Psalm 119:9)
A young woman keeps her way pure by guarding her life with God’s Word and seeking Him with her whole heart, so she does not wander from His commandments.
