Today is Friday, November 19th, 2004; Karen's Korner #420

A couple of Bible verses from Psalms, as we head into the Thanksgiving weekend:

Psalms 19: 7 - 11:  "God's laws are perfect. They protect us, make us wise, and give us joy and light. God's laws are pure, eternal, just. They are more desirable than gold. They are sweeter than honey dripping from a honeycomb. For they warn us away from harm and give success to those who obey them."

Bible Commentary:  "When we think of the Law, we often think of something that keep us from having fun. But here we see the opposite--laws that free us, protect us, make us wise, and bring joy and light. That's because God's laws are guidelines and lights on our path, rather than chains on our hands and feet. They point at harm and warn us, then point at success and guide us."
