Psalm 19:7-9, The Message

The revelation of God is whole
and pulls our lives together.
The signposts of God are clear
and point out the right road.
The life-maps of God are right,
showing the way to joy.
The directions of God are plain
and easy on the eyes.
God's reputation is twenty-four-carat gold,
with a lifetime guarantee.
The decisions of God are accurate
down to the nth degree.

Last night after hearing a friend speak her heart and share her convictions about what God is asking her to do, I couldn't help but think a lot about obedience. It's not easy. I admire my friend for recognizing what the Lord wants her to do and realizing that she must obey - the trick is that it's going to be very very difficult for her.

I was thrilled to see that a verse from Psalm 19 was the "verse of the day" on www.biblegateway.com today. Reading these words on the validity of the Word are just the "push" I think we all need when it comes to obedience. We can't go wrong if we obey.

I don't know if this speaks to you and where God has you right now, but regardless, I would encourage you to act on that "nudge" from the Lord. He knows what He's doing.
