This is a blog that I have created for my 5 grandchildren. I have a daily Scripture verse or two along with comments and questions. Hope this encourages young people to read in their Bible every day and to meditate on God's Word.

Read Psalms 119:165 Wow! Isn't it strange to be reading verse 165? That is because Psalm 119 is the longest chapter in the Bible. But, like we found out yesterday, most of the verses in this loooooong chapter talk about God's Word, the Bible. The first half of our verse is odd because it about people who love God's law. Do you like rules? Do you like to be told by others what to do and what not to do? But rules are not made to make us unhappy. Rules are not made to make us do things that we don't want to do. Rules are made so that we can get along with people. Your Dad may like to drive on any side of the road that he wants to - but he may run right into someone else and have a bad accident. That is why the rule is to drive on the right side of the road. If your Dad obeys the rule, and the other drivers obey the rule, each car will stay on their side of the road and go along safely. Rules are made to help us - rules are not made just to be bossy and to make us unhappy. That is the same with God's rules. God made us and He knows what is best for all of us. If we obey God's rules, we will have peace in the world and we will all get along with each other. Don't be afraid to tell anyone that you obey God's rules. Be proud that you love God and tell all of your friends that God's way is the best way to live.
