Meditations From The Psalms, Part 1

"Open thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of thy law." -Psalm 119:18

This great verse speaks of spiritual illumination, which is given only to the believer. I often pray this as a prayer before I open God's word. Notice how personalized it is. "…that I may behold…." The verse tells us that below the surface there lies great spiritual truths that only through meditation will be revealed. Please do not rush through a text, but savor it. Job said he desired the word more than food. Have you been fed today? That's the way I see things.
