“How blessed are those whose way is blameless, who walk in the law of
the Lord. How blessed are those who observe His testimonies, who seek Him with
all their heart. They also do no unrighteousness; they walk in His ways.” (Psalm
119:1-3)

In a world with mixed values,
how are you walking? Is it a mix of what the world teaches and what the Lord
says? You are blessed if you walk out of the fog of this world’s thinking and
come into the truth that is eternal. Walk in the law of the Lord, for He is
good and His love endures forever. Do your good works give a testimony on how
you live that it is in the way of the Lord and His law?

Lord, help me to see through the obstacles put in the way by this world. Lead me into Your light that You have given from the beginning of all things. Lead me according to Your goodness to see that only by walking in the way You have established is there goodness and mercy. Help me to walk in the way of righteousness that I may know the life to which You have called me to live now and forever.

Holy Spirit, minister to my heart
that I may see the light and walk in it. Keep me from stumbling in the darkness
of this world that I may learn righteous living. Lift up my countenance that I
may learn from You in every circumstance the way that leads to eternal life. Now
and forever, bring me to abide in the goodness of the law which has been
revealed from the beginning. Lead me by Your grace to increase in righteousness.
Amen.
