Lead me by your truth and teach me,
for you are the God who saves me.
All day long I put my hope in you.
David is praising God again. He asks for forgiveness from the sins of his youth. He says that the Lord shows the correct path to humble people who honor him. He reminds the listener of God's unfailing love and faithfulness.
This is a powerful passage. I am surprised it is not more well-known. There is such a wealth of Psalms that this one is overlooked. But consider the elements that make it up. There is a "thy will be done" element and a statement of God's power. Then there is a commitment to serve our Lord continually. Can't beat that!
Prayer: God, I have so much to learn. Teach me all I need to know to serve You in the way You deserve. You are so mighty, so faithful. I promise to be more aware of Your presence as I go about my daily life.
Amen
