"Remember the word unto thy servant, upon which thou hast caused me to hope.
This is my comfort in my affliction: for thy word hath quickened me."
Psalms 119:49-50
This is a plea to God to remember (and to keep) his word. I love the ideas here that God's word is the source of hope, and comfort, and life. I'm not sure that it is that in our lives all the time, but it *should* be. What God has to say is more important than the trivialities which we so often obsess about. His word *is* the source of so much good in our lives, and could be the source of much more, if we would heed it more often.
Today, let's remember what God has to say; in every aspect of our lives, let's rely on his word. We can find our hope, and our comfort, and our lives and the meaning thereof in those words, as we read and study and ponder them, and apply them to our daily walk. As we get to know the Lord, we will find so much more goodness everywhere we look. Today, instead of looking elsewhere to try to fill voids in our lives, let's stay focused on him, and he will guide and comfort us and be the source of everything essential.
