Show Me

Psalm 139:24 - Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

David's thoughts here are so right on point.  He didn't want to keep on sinning.  He wanted his heart to be right before God and he knew that the only way that could happen, was if God showed him where he was falling short.  He knew he couldn't rely on his own understanding, because as a sinful human being by nature, it was a flawed point of view.  He trusted in the only perfect opinion and point of view that he knew existed - God's...

Dear Lord, where am I lacking?  What is slowing me down from living the abundant and blessed life You have for me?  I know that You will point out where I am and where I need to be when I ask You to.  Show me the path I need to be on for the everlasting life in Your Glorious Kingdom.  In Jesus' name, Amen!



God Bless!!!
