Ps119:65-72

65 Do good to your servant

according to your word, O Lord.

66 Teach me knowledge and good judgment,

for I believe in your commands.

67 Before I was afflicted I went astray,

but now I obey your word.

68 You are good, and what you do is good;

teach me your decrees.

69 Though the arrogant have smeared me with lies,

I keep your precepts with all my heart.

70 Their hearts are callous and unfeeling,

but I delight in your law.

71 It was good for me to be afflicted

so that I might learn your decrees.

72 The law from your mouth is more precious to me

than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.

Trust in God's commandments, and good discernment was given. Trust in His words, for they are the best counsel. Pray! for a mind and heart that penetrates deep into the word of God, becoming spiritually discerning in situations and circumstances. afflictions or mistakes are good teachers of obedience and understanding. never mind what the situation is or affliction was, penetrating insight into God’s word is more valuable than silver and gold!
