Psalms 116:8-9

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 116:8-9. For thou hast delivered my soul from death, mine eye from tears, and my feet from falling. I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.

"Let my fellow creatures think what they will of me, I will not care about their judgments, I will only think of God." This is the highest noblest, happiest style of living, - to "walk before the Lord." Why, there are some men who dare not even call their souls their own! They are afraid of their next-door neighbours, or of some great kinsman who sets the fashion for them; but the man who walks before the Lord will think only of the verdict of the Most High, and will care nothing about what men will say.
