psalm 119 vav: Let your love, God, shape my life

In Psalm 119, we read:


41-42 Let your love, God, shape my life

    with salvation, exactly as you promised;

Then I’ll be able to stand up to mockery

    because I trusted your Word.

Don’t ever deprive me of truth, not ever


Saint Paul was able to stand up to mockery because he trusted in Jesus - the Word of God. It is impossible to live the Christian life without the love of the Lord, without believing in his promises. 

I, as a Christian, I believe that the Lord has been shaping my life, but I also believe that I have to pray as the psalmist:

Let your love, God, shape my life

because my life is not perfectly according to the Lord's will.
