Psalm 16:11 – “You make known to me the path of life; in your presence, there is fullness of joy; at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.”
What beautiful promises are found in this short verse of scripture. God promises to make known to me, (little old me) the pathway of life. The path of the life that He has already preordained and predestined that I would live by His grace. Within the promises, there’s an implication that this pathway of life, is where true completeness and joy is found. This pathway is in the presence of my heavenly Father, and in His presence, there is fullness of joy and pleasures of dwelling with Him forever.
This verse comforts my soul with a wave of peace and liberation from worry. It reminds me, that no matter what my journey brings…fears, challenges, and tears…that if I stay within the boundaries of the path of life God has ordained for me, I need not worry. Why? Because the Lord has already marked out my path. In fact, I can rest in His presence with confidence, knowing I am transformed and refined with the fullness and completion of His Holy joy…forevermore. Amen!
