Daily Reading: Psalm 119:25-48, The Message Version

I love The Message version of the Bible. I'm trying to read one or two of the Psalms every morning before I start the day in The Message. The guy who is writting this psalm/song is so honest ! He is honest with God about how miserable everything is but he is also, at the same time, totally convinced of God’s love and God’s power to rescue him and make a difference. I love that blend of gritty realism and resilient faith. He knows his life is desperate but instead of switching off from God he turns to him and keeps asking God to BE and DO all the things that God has promised to BE and DO. Come on God – do it!!!
