“The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple. The statutes of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart: the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes. The fear of the LORD is clean, enduring for ever: the judgments of the LORD are true and righteous altogether.” Psalm 19:7-9
While all of creation testifies to us of the existence, power, and wisdom of our Creator, it is the Word of God that reveals to us who this God is and converts our lost and sinful souls to faith in our Maker. The revelation of God recorded for us in the Bible gives wisdom to the simple, joy to the heart, and light to our eyes. It reveals who God is, His perfect will for us, and what He has done to save us from our sinful and erring ways and to grant us salvation and new life in Him.
We thank You, O LORD, for enlightening our eyes with the truth of Your Word and calling us back to You through faith in Christ Jesus, Your Son, and our Savior. Amen.
