Psalm 119:47 revisited

when i posted Psalm 119:47, i typed, "...I find delight in THY commandments..." what the revised standard version actually says is, "...I find my delight in THY commandments..." those are two different things. saying "I find delight" leaves room for other delights. "I find my delight" implies that HIS commandments are what bring me joy. there is no room for anything else because i am consumed with the joy of HIS Word. i pray that that might be true.

Is that really the time you posted this? I didn't see you on last night (well, you know, until it was way past bedtime for both of us;)

I wondered. :)

Oh, and now related to the actual post: I'd like that to be true of me too (don't think it is right now).

i was just reading in psalm 1 where it says 'his delight is in the law of the Lord' and thinking about how important it is not just to read and obey God's Word, but to find one's delight in it.
