Today's Verse: Psalm 119:130

Wednesday, August 5, 2026

The unfolding of your words gives light; it gives understanding to the simple.
— Psalm 119:130

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Sometimes the right path is not so difficult to find; we just need to know where to begin our search - the reading of God's words. The right way is very seldom just the property of the bright, wise, and scholarly; it can be very clear for any of us if we will choose to look for it!

My Prayer...

Holy Father, thank you for making your will known through your words in Scripture. Bless me as I open your Word. May I find not only the answer to my questions, but may I find you and your precious will. In Jesus' precious name I pray. Amen.
