Make me know Thy ways, O Lord; teach me Thy paths. Lead me in Thy truth and teach me, for Thou art the God of my salvation; for Thee I wait all the day. Psalm 25:4,5

It seems my whole life will be used to know the ways of the Lord. Sometimes I am a very poor student. I search for truths in all the wrong places. Yet there is Your persistent call—You are there for me each day--ever watchful and waiting for me to respond.

In this world we are continually bombarded with falsehood. Our youth, as well as the mature, say there is no truth. A popular phrase is to accept “whatever works” as the guide to our life. Well, I have found that nothing truly works but Your works.

Today Lord, continue to pour Your salvation message of truth into my life. I will learn to wait on You. I will learn to think on what You have already done before I rush into situations that I do not understand. The way of the cross is before me, and I know that it will strip away everything that it is not useful to You. Thank You, Lord, for Your salvation and truth. Amen.
