Psalm 119 (vv 81-96): I am Yours.

John Stephenson

The psalmist stated to God in verse 94,, "I am Yours." At different stages of my life I've been my parents', my own and my wife's. God has the greatest authority and influence in my life, so overarching all parts of my life since 1983 (when I was first gave my life to God) I also declare that, "I am Yours, God!" 

I do this by wanting to spend time with God, by wanting to base my life on His commands and by realising that I am not my own. Like Joshua proclaimed to the Israelites before he died, "Choose this day who you will serve." Let's all decide to all rely and depend on God, regularly affirming in both actions and words that, "I am Yours, God!"
