The Lord is the portion of my inheritance and my cup; You support my lot. The lines have fallen to me in pleasant places; Indeed, my heritage is beautiful to me. I will bless the Lord who has counseled me; Indeed, my mind instructs me in the night. I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my glory rejoices; My flesh also will dwell securely. For You will not abandon my soul to Sheol; Nor will You allow Your Holy One to undergo decay. You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
Psalms 16:5‭-‬11 NASB

We are so blessed, huh, Brothers and Sisters? I think of how hard life was back when this was written, and think on how wonderful it was that He so often brought His comforting truth and revealing to the writers.

He and His Glory are so very radiating. It seems that these passages speaks so much of Christ's experience with His Father.

These words, their deep significance and meaning, are so worthy of our time and reflection.

He just keeps giving. Lord Help us all be like you.

Very true and there is no end to the counsel God gives us.
Truly we only need to acknowledge and inherit deeply
within our heart the truth He imparts. Through Christ our
Lord who revealed His Father to us, we can go deeper as
we bring His love daily into our hearts. We will never be
Jesus of course but if we follow Him with a stalwart mind.
So while we will never be Jesus, we will not be other than
Jesus with the depth He implants in us.
