2 Chronicles 32:1-33; Ezekiel 48:1-35; 1 John 2:12-29
My ears You have opened. Psalm 40:6 NKJV
I love words—the origin of words, the meanings of words, new words, languages, and our unlimited ability to rearrange 26 letters to express thoughts in a constantly fresh way. But this verse reminds me that I must not only delight in reading the words of God, but I must hear them. I must let them sink deep into my soul so that I become a doer of the Word; so that I live the Word. As one translation of Psalm 119:97 says, “Oh, how I love Your law! It is my meditation all the day.”—Marilyn MacMullen
Speak, O Lord, as we come to You,
To receive the food of Your holy Word.
Take Your truth, plant it deep in us,
Shape and fashion us in Your likeness. —K. & K. Getty
