I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel; My heart also instructs me in the night seasons. I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved. Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will rest in hope. For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, Nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption. You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; At Your right hand are pleasures forevermore.
Psalm 16:7-11 (NKJV)
My soul blesses the Lord for strength and divine direction. If all men knew their charts and course of life.... How full will the joy of living be. But not even knowing it should be reason to live life more according to God's divine direction for us. Living by His instructions brings too many benefits to be easily passed up.
The Lord is a rewarder of them that 'diligently' seek Him, not just to quench the thirst, hunger or need for a season, but for a more intimate relationship. In His words are assurances that are invaluable and priceless. When we seek Him continuously and relentlessly, He's able to show us the path of life where true pleasures abound forever more. Relentless pursuit of Him is simply living smart.
Be encouraged,
