Keep God's Word the Main Focus

Enjoy this Message translation interpretation of Psalms 119, I think he says it much better than I ever could.

Psalms 119:9-16 (Message)

How can a young person live a clean life?



By carefully reading the map of your Word.


I'm single-minded in pursuit of you;


don't let me miss the road signs you've posted.


I've banked your promises in the vault of my heart


so I won't sin myself bankrupt.


Be blessed, God;


train me in your ways of wise living.


I'll transfer to my lips


all the counsel that comes from your mouth;


I delight far more in what you tell me about living


than in gathering a pile of riches.


I ponder every morsel of wisdom from you,


I attentively watch how you've done it.


I relish everything you've told me of life,


I won't forget a word of it.
