I love God’s honey more than money.

In Psalm 19 David made a big list of good things that come from obeying God’s Word:  protection, joy, wisdom, light, and insight.  Then he said two amazing things:  God’s Word is way better than tons of money, and it’s so sweet to the soul that it tastes better than honey.  You might not believe that now, but one day you will.  As you choose to follow God, you’ll find that his honey (the Bible) is the sweetest thing in life.  You’ll want to taste more and more of it.  It will be a greater help than any amount of money.
