Sweeter Than Honey

“The law of the LORD is perfect,
restoring the soul;
The testimony of the LORD is sure,
making wise the simple.
The precepts of the LORD are right,
rejoicing the heart;

Moreover, by them Your servant is warned;
In keeping them there is great reward.”

I’ve finished my series of posts about how I became a Christian, and what it means to believe in Jesus Christ. I’m about to begin another series on why you can believe in Jesus Christ. You may be thinking: how can I be encouraged by these posts in those moments when I feel like a smoldering candle that is about to go out? Because the posts are about our hope.
