July 03, 2025 Daily Devotion: "A Grateful Heart" Psalm 119:62-64 New Living Translation 62 I rise at midnight to thank you. for your just regulations. 63 I am a friend to anyone who fears you— anyone who obeys your commandments. 64 O Lord, your unfailing love fills theearth; teach me your decrees. How do you feel about the darkness? Have you ever found yourself all alone in the middle of the night? We can usually keep things together during the daytime, but there's something about the nighttime that breaks down our defenses. The psalmist had the answer for finding joy during the darkest of times. Whatever has you feeling down and swallowed in darkness, there's joy to be found. You still have reasons to rise and give thanks. God's Word is a light, and it shines in the darkness in away it never could in the light (Psalm119:105). We have only to open our eyes and look for it (Psalm 119:148). At some point, we'll all find ourselves in a dark place that we would never have chosen. Even then, if we open God's Word, He can shine His light (Psalm 119:130) and reveal places of joy.
