Read the scripture repeatedly. God's laws will be in your heart. You'll figure life out.
Lighthouse Poetry Contest January 2021

Prompt: Psalm 40:8 I delight to do Your will, O my God, and Your law is within my heart.

What joy to obey your will.
How precious is time spent in your Word.
At times, the way is not clear.
I falter and stumble and search.
In my missteps, I recall your precepts. Then
I delight to do your will, oh my God,
And thy law is within my heart.

Prompt: Psalm 40:8 I delight to do Your will, O my God, and Your law is within my heart.
