Welcome to Enjoying the Journey with Evangelist Scott Paul.

0:17.0

For some, the Christian life has been reduced to a one day a week church service experience,

0:22.6

and yet God, in His Word, teaches us that we are to walk with Him daily.

0:26.6

Today we look to God's Word to discover simple Bible principles that will help we've been studying the daily Christian life.

0:53.4

And I want to spend just a day or two with you on one

0:56.3

verse, one verse that is a great footnote to our study and a principle, I think, that will be a great

encouragement to you. It's Psalm 118 in verse number 24, where the psalmist writes, this is the day which the lord hath made we will rejoice

1:13.9

But to be honest with you, as I think about my life, most of my life has been made up not of
