19 days.

27 Nov

It has been 19 days since my last post… I can’t believe how fast time flies by.

I have 19 (plus one) days until I’ll be on a plane home for Christmas.

In 19 days, half of the instructional year will be over.

I’ll get to spend (one less than) 19 days with family for Christmas.

I have so much to be thankful for. In the midst of school craziness, I have to remind myself of that.

 

Psalms 19…

The heavens declare the glory of God;

the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Day after day they pour forth speech;

night after night they reveal knowledge.

They have no speech, they use no words;

no sound is heard from them.

Yet their voice[b] goes out into all the earth,

their words to the ends of the world.

In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.

It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,

like a champion rejoicing to run his course.

It rises at one end of the heavens

and makes its circuit to the other;

nothing is deprived of its warmth.

 

The law of the LORD is perfect,

refreshing the soul.

The statutes of the LORD are trustworthy,

making wise the simple.

The precepts of the LORD are right,

giving joy to the heart.

The commands of the LORD are radiant,

giving light to the eyes.

The fear of the LORD is pure,

enduring forever.

The decrees of the LORD are firm,

and all of them are righteous.

 

They are more precious than gold,

than much pure gold;

They are sweeter than honey,

than honey from the honeycomb.

By them your servant is warned;

in keeping them there is great reward.

But who can discern their own errors?

Forgive my hidden faults.

Keep your servant also from willful sins;

may they not rule over me.

Then I will be blameless,

innocent of great transgression.

 

May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart

be pleasing in your sight,

LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

    When I was a young girl, grandpa made us learn this Psalm and I remember one time when Uncle Phil, Uncle Mark and myself had to stand in front of a group of people and say this by memorization. I love Jesus so much and you too!!!! mom
