Psalm 119:145-152
We are reading about a conversation with God. It comes from a person choosing wholehearted devotion to God. God our Creator and Redeemer is eternal. The guidance and promises of God will outlast any challenge we are facing. The poet of Psalm 119 recognized this truth since childhood and over his lifetime has found the Word of God to be a reliable source of hope. He wakes up early to pray and consider the Scripture. The Psalmist’s “first thing in the morning” conversation with God is honest about the challenges of life and yet it is also completely reliant on what God has said.
