OH HOW I WISHED I UNDERSTOOD!

O Lord, help us not to despite or oppose what we do not understand. --William Penn

The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether. More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold: sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb. Psalm 19:7-10

There are many things going on in our world today that I just don’t understand. I could spend time here listing some of them but I believe you already know several of the things I am talking about so I won’t waste our time this morning. In Psalm 19, the Lord points to One thing in order for us to get wisdom and that One thing is His Word.

Look at what it does:

            It converts the soul, makes wise the simple, rejoices the heart, enlightens the eyes, and it endures forever.

Look at what it is:

            It is true and righteous altogether, more to be desired than gold, and sweeter than the honey and the honeycomb!

Friend, do you want to begin to understand some things in this life? Go to His Word and get understanding! Get wise by getting in the Word!
