A Plea to God

I seek you with all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands. Psalm 119:10 NIV

This is my plea to God. I want to please him. I want to walk in his word. But I am only human and most days, if not all, I will fail miserably.  So I understand this please from the Psalmist.  He knows he will fail but he also knows God can keep him in the word.

I've grown more in the few months since I started these daily readings than in all my years of Christian school. I'm not ignorant of the fact that at this point in my life love and family mean more than things. But I also know that in doing these daily devotionals, no matter how short or small, that I am staying in his word. It puts it at the forefront of my mind and I dwell on these words all day long.

So keep me in your word Lord. Do not let me stray. Amen.
