Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart to revere your name.” vs. 11
Psalm 86:11-13
When we began to walk with the Lord, however many years ago that might have been, we likely didn’t realize that it would be so difficult and that sometimes the path would be hard to distinguish. But that’s how it is, and we soon discover that we need constant guidance to stay on the way. How good it is then to have faithful teachers and preachers with us on the journey! Their help can be invaluable during the tough times. And then as the years have continued, who could have imagined that there could be so many distractions in the life of faith? Instead of bringing clarity to our hearts, the changing times have made the truth even more confusing. And now we have AI, some new invention that means we will never again be able to reliably believe anything that we see or read! Something must have gone awry while we weren’t paying attention! Oh, how the words of the psalmist ring true: “Give me an undivided heart, O Lord, to revere your name.” Somehow, as these divisive years pass, it will be so important to continue to focus our attention on the unconditional love of God, and recognize that the very best use of our time is in sacrificial service. It is here that we will find contentment!
