by David Bowman | Jun 16, 2023 | Daily D | 0 comments

Psalm 19:7, 8
The instructions of the Lord are perfect, reviving the soul.
The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple.
The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart.
The commands of the LORD are clear, giving insight for living. (NLT)

The directions of GOD are plain
and easy on the eyes. (MSG)

A quick trip to the airport and a flight to see our curly-haired granddaughter is an hour away. A notification from the airline says our plane left its location a few minutes early on its way here.

We need to dress, finish packing, load the car, hit the road, grab a parking shuttle, and zip through security. A short hop toward the east will follow. Our son will pick us up at the airport and our granddaughter has promised to give her grandmother a huge hug.

Crosby Stills and Nash sang a short song that became a hit back in the ‘70s. It was called, _Just A Song Before I Go_. Also before I go, I read God’s words carefully arranged for this morning and found in Psalm 19. The last line of verse 8 says,

The commands of the LORD are clear,
giving insight for living.

The Message paraphrase puts it this way:

The directions of GOD are plain
and easy on the eyes.

We need a helping handful of God’s instructions day by day. So before my buddy and I wing away, it’s good to pause for insights for living today.

What is God saying to you?

—

I will seek God’s insights for living day by day.

—

Our Father, awaken me day by day with an expectation of new learning, growth, and development. Amen.

Daily D – Psalm 119:114

Psalm 119:114 You are my refuge and my shield; your word is my source of hope.

Daily D – Jonah 4:2-3

Jonah 4:2, 3 So he complained to the Lord about it: “Didn’t I say before I left home that you would do this, Lord? That is why I ran away to Tarshish! I knew that you are a merciful and compassionate God, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. You are eager to turn back from destroying people. Just kill me now, Lord! I’d rather be dead than alive if what I predicted will not happen.”

Daily D – Psalm 115:14-15

Psalm 115:14, 15 May the Lord richly bless both you and your children. May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Daily D – Joel 2:12-13

Joel 2:12, 13 That is why the Lord says, “Turn to me now, while there is time. Give me your hearts. Come with fasting, weeping, and mourning. Don’t tear your clothing in your grief, but tear your hearts instead.” Return to the Lord your God, for he is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love. He is eager to relent and not punish.”

Daily D – Hosea 14:8-9

Hosea 14:8, 9 “O Israel, stay away from idols! I am the one who answers your prayers and cares for you. I am like a tree that is always green; all your fruit comes from me.” Let those who are wise understand these things. Let those with discernment listen carefully. The paths of the Lord are true and right, and righteous people live by walking in them. But in those paths sinners stumble and fall.”
