The Way // A Prayer from Today's Psalms // July 1, 2025

Lord, what broken, sin-confused platform, pleasure or protest am I thoughtlessly allowing to guide my plans and desires? What assumptions am I naively making that I'm not questioning...not contrasting with your holy Word?

Lord God Almighty, my only King and Counselor, Savior and Sustainer, lead me in the way I should walk, the way in which I should stand, the way in which I should sit, and the way in which is my greatest good and your greatest glory!

In you, O Lord, do I take refuge from deceptive, destructive counsel. In your righteousness deliver me. For your name's sake, lead me and guide me out of the net of self-glorification, self-moralization, and self-defeating desire to impress others.

Into your hand I commit my spirit, for you have redeemed me, O Lord, faithful God! My times are in your hand, and gladly will I trust you through thick and through thin.
