LYING TO MYSELF
Today's reading: Psalm 119
"Keep me from lying to myself; give me the privilege of knowing your law." Psalm 119:29 NLT
Scripture is the 'level' we hold all thoughts, deeds, words and tendencies up against in order to know right from wrong.
The more of the Bible we know, the more apt we are to recognize evil from godly.
Without God's Word, we are left to our own devices. Faulty devices, at best. Fickle devices that change with every circumstance, every emotion, every whim. Skewed devices that tend to leave us looking better than others.
But we have to get His Word into us. We have to spend time in it. We have to soak in it. We have to be changed by it.
