How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Psalm 119:103
The psalmist’s delight is expressed in verse 97, where he summarizes his sentiments: “Oh, how I love your law!” The psalm highlights several advantages of engagement with the Bible: “Your commands . . . make me wiser than my enemies. I have more insight than all my teachers . . . . I have more understanding than the elders, for I obey your precepts” (vv. 98-100).
Not only are the words of Scripture sweet to the taste, they strengthen and enrich our lives and help us to honor God.
