Psalm 119:102-104 NLT I haven’t turned away from your regulations, for you have taught me well. How sweet your words taste to me; they are sweeter than honey. Your commandments give me understanding; no wonder I hate every false way of life.

I have a pretty serious sweet tooth. When my husband finds a dessert too sweet, I say “pass it over here!” They say the more sugar you eat, the more sugar you crave, and I’m sure they are right.

When the psalmist wrote these words, I imagine honey was the sweetest thing around. But he says that God’s Word is even sweeter! The more he learned about God’s ways and His commands, the more he wanted to know. The more he followed God’s ways, the more he understood that they were best. Like sugar, the more of God’s Word he consumed, the more he craved.

If we want to understand God’s ways better, we need to indulge in His Word!
