Proclamation – Deborah Williams

Psalm 119:105-112

105 Your word is a lantern to my feet and a light upon my path.

106 I have sworn and am determined to keep your righteous judgments.

107 I am deeply troubled; preserve my life, O Lord, according to your word.

108 Accept, O Lord, the willing tribute of my lips, and teach me your judgments.

109 My life is always in my hand, yet I do not forget your law.

110 The wicked have set a trap for me, but I have not strayed from your commandments.

111 Your decrees are my inheritance forever; truly, they are the joy of my heart.

112 I have applied my heart to fulfill your statutes forever and to the end.
