"TETH"

"Thou hast dealt well with thy servant, O LORD, according to thy word." (Psalms 119:65)

  It is very fitting that we come to this portion of Scripture at this particular time; this being the first weekend of the New Year, vacation time is over, and now it's time to get serious about what matters most! If there was a law to associate with the content of this section of Scripture, it would have a very similar relationship with the word above, "TETH," and that has to do with TEETH! That's right, as if teeth could somehow be associated with some kind of law? Well, if we are talking about the Law of the LORD, then yes, teeth not only is a part, it is both what the law can do, both good and bad for us, and what we should do to God's word, in that we should eat it up! God's word needs to be the nourishment for our souls; without His word being consumed on a daily basis, we should feel as malnourished as we actually really are, because our soul should feel weak and weary. The reality of this verse is so overwhelming, it's not even funny, it is something that should make us wake up and take notice! Regardless of who you are and what position you hold in this life, your life is blessed beyond what you deserve! We take many things for granted, especially the fact that Jesus Christ gave up so much to take our place on that cross. If we want to compare our lives to anyone, then lets talk about how Jesus came down from glory to take on flesh and then live as an outcast and die as a criminal. Even before He was even born, His life was marked as an outcast. Joseph knew the truth, but you can bet many other people did not buy into the whole virgin birth part of His origin. As was said before, we need to be so very grateful, there is only One Judge, and He is so madly in love with us, His judgment over us is love...

""O our God, we thank you and praise your glorious name! But who am I, and who are my people, that we could give anything to you? Everything we have has come from you, and we give you only what you first gave us! We are here for only a moment, visitors and strangers in the land as our ancestors were before us. Our days on earth are like a passing shadow, gone so soon without a trace."" (1 Chronicles 29:13-15) NLT
