Faith Filled Friday: Blessed are They Who Follow the Law of the Lord!

I thought this passage from this past Sunday’s psalm reading at mass struck me as making a very good prayer. 

 

Instruct me, O LORD, in the way of your statutes,
that I may exactly observe them.
Give me discernment, that I may observe your law
and keep it with all my heart.

R/ Blessed are they who follow the law of the Lord!

                                                                        -Psalm 119:33-34

It reminded me of my neighbors, the Orthodox Jews, who live their lives in their efforts to obey everyone of their commandments.  God bless them.  They are my spiritual older brothers.
