“The law of the LORD is perfect, reviving 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.” Ps 19:7–8
There was a tough time when I studied law, dry and dull. I had so many thick books to read, and slightly different theories gave me a headache. The more pages I turned, the more frustrated I became.
One day, I saw the above verses from the lyrics of a New Song. It was a liberating experience. Reading the verses directly from the book of Psalms moved me even more deeply.
‘That’s right. As a child of God, I’m learning God’s perfect law. So, I shouldn’t think it’s difficult to study the laws of the world.’
I felt confident and invigorated. Comforted greatly by the words of God, I was able to finish my studies smoothly.
The law of God is truly amazing. When I keep it, my soul becomes purified; I gain wisdom; and my heart overflows with joy, exactly as written in the book of Psalms.
