The Lord Will

Psalm 16:11

β€œThou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fulness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 16

Meaning

God makes known the path of life, fullness of joy in his presence, and enduring pleasures at his right hand; this is communion with God, not a prosperity formula or promise of constant pleasant emotion.

Read carefully

God makes known the path of life, fullness of joy in his presence, and enduring pleasures at his right hand; this is communion with God, not a prosperity formula or promise of constant pleasant emotion. Keep the verse inside its literary unit.

Reflection

Let this verse deepen refuge and loyalty to God without turning poetic confidence into a guarantee of comfort, superiority, or immunity from suffering.
