Psalm 119:97
“Oh how I love your law! It is my meditation all day.”
This verse comes from Psalm 119, the longest psalm, which is a poetic and devotional work entirely dedicated to praising and reflecting on God's 'law' (Torah), precepts, statutes, and commandments. It's a deeply personal expression of love for God's instruction.
What does it mean to love God's instructions so deeply that they become a constant meditation?
