JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Psalm 19, verse 8.

The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.

There is spiritual vision for the person who knows the word and will of God. We need Jesus for salvation, and we need His Word for guidance to live out His plan for our lives.

Our attitude toward God’s Word will have a great impact on whether we receive or reject the content.

The writer of Psalm 119 demonstrated an attitude toward God’s Word that opened his mind to its counsel. He said in Psalm 119, verse 111, “Your statutes are my heritage forever; they are the joy of my heart.”

And in verse 14, he said, “I rejoice in following your statutes as one rejoices in great riches.”

This Light Reflection inspires us to view God’s Word as a valuable treasure that brings us joy and understanding in the Year to Shine.
