chock full

Some days, my Bible reading is very quiet, with maybe a single verse that speaks to me.

And then, there's other days, like today...

Psalm 37
3 Trust the Lord & do good.
     Then you will live safely in the land & prosper.

4 Take delight in the Lord,
     & He will give you your heart's desire.

5 Commit everything you do to the Lord.
     Trust Him, & He will help you.

7 Be still in the presence of the Lord;
     & wait patiently for Him to act.
   (If you were to read verse 7 in the New Dan Waits Paraphrased Amplified Reversed Version (NDPARV) of the Bible, it would be translated this way... Shut up & wait.)


vs 23 The steps of the godly are directed by the Lord.
     He delights in every detail of their lives.

24 Though they stumble, they will not fall,
     for the Lord holds them by the hand.

34 Don't be impatient for the Lord to act.
     Travel steadily along His path.
     He will honor you, giving you the land.


Like I said, some days the Bible reading is quiet. And then other days, He just speaks it out!
