Today, like every day, will be filled with choices–most of them seemingly small and perhaps insignificant. Yet all of them reflect the way we think and what we believe, and they accumulate and lead us down certain paths. It’s always wise to stop and think, to pray and petition for guidance. I find these words of the Psalmist to be good and helpful reminders of all that. May the Lord bless your day as you seek his way.
O Lord, I give my life to you.
I trust in you, my God!
Do not let me be disgraced,
or let my enemies rejoice in my defeat.
No one who trusts in you will ever be disgraced,
but disgrace comes to those who try to deceive others.
Show me the right path, O Lord;
point out the road for me to follow.
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.
Remember, O Lord, your compassion and unfailing love,
which you have shown from long ages past.
Do not remember the rebellious sins of my youth.
Remember me in the light of your unfailing love,
for you are merciful, O Lord.
—Psalm 25:1-7
