Psalms 119:2, 7, 10, 34, 58, 69, 80, 145

What joy overwhelms everyone who keeps the ways of God, those who seek him as their heart’s passion!

I will give my thanks to you from a heart of love and truth. And every time I learn more of your righteous judgments

I have longed for you with the passion of my heart; don’t let me stray from your directions!

Give me an understanding heart so that I can passionately know and obey your truth.

With all my heart I seek your favor; pour out your grace on me as you promised!

Proud boasters make up lies about me because I am passionate to follow all that you say.

Make me passionate and wholehearted to fulfill your every wish, so that I’ll never have to be ashamed of myself.

Answer my passionate prayer, O Lord, and I’ll obey everything you say.
