Thanks for joining us on our 40-day journey of prayer. We’re asking you to get your journals out and do 3 things:

1. Read.
   • Read the Psalm of the day. Enjoy the 2-minute devo.
2. Reflect.
   • Journal a few thoughts.  Put into words what the Holy Spirit is speaking to you.
3. Respond.
   • Spend time in prayer.  Respond to what God is speaking to you through his Spirit and his word.

“Everything that a person can possibly feel, experience, and say is brought into expression before God in the Psalms.” Eugene Peterson

Today’s reading: Psalm 119:9-16

How can a young person stay pure?
    By obeying your word.
¹⁰ I have tried hard to find you—
    don’t let me wander from your commands.
¹¹ I have hidden your word in my heart,
    that I might not sin against you.
¹² I praise you, O Lord;
    teach me your decrees.
¹³ I have recited aloud
    all the regulations you have given us.
¹⁴ I have rejoiced in your laws
    as much as in riches.
¹⁵ I will study your commandments
    and reflect on your ways.
¹⁶ I will delight in your decrees
    and not forget your word.
