Psalm 119
Verses 17-24
When we ask for the Lord to give us in abundance, we do not picture the end result being "that I may live and keep your word." Such our the ways of the Lord, He will give greatly when it concerns are being more like him. The next verse shows that by his grace alone we are able to "behold wondrous things" in His Word. Next we see that we are only here for a short time so we beg the Lord to not hide his commandments from us. Then in verse 20 with the power of the Holy Spirit our soul can be "consumed with longing" for His Word. Finally the section ends saying, no matter what the world is plotting against me. No matter what the evil ones want to accomplish. Lord keep me in you will because you are my delight.
