Psalm 119: Purified

How can a young person stay on the path of purity?

Psalm 119 Beth

The beautiful and innocent young princess is captured and carried off by the evil villain. He locks her up in his secret place.

Enter the hero, a hardened veteran of many battles in many wars. He overcomes many trials on his way to rescue the princess.

In a great battle with the evil man's soldiers, the hero and his companions manage to defeat all their enemies. But the hero suffers a serious wound from the sword of an opponent.

The hero's trusted armor carrier takes the hero's sword, thrusts it into a fire, and then uses the hot blade to cauterize the hero's wound.

The hero goes on to rescue the princess from the clutches of the villain, just before the villain is about to defile her.


Can you tell which part of the story best captures the Biblical concept of purity?

Purity is in the cauterizing of the wound by fire. And true purity only comes from GOD. No matter where your impurity came from, He is powerful enough to purify you. But it might HURT like nothing has ever hurt before.

And then, once He makes you pure, how do you stay on the path of purity?

Purity comes through fire. Through trials. From having faced the vileness of life and of yourself and coming through victorious!
