Teach Me Your Paths

 

Show me Your ways, O Lord; teach me Your paths.

 

Lead me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; on You I wait all the day.

 

Remember, O Lord, Your tender mercies and Your loving kindnesses, for they are from of old.

 

Do not remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions; according to Your mercy remember me, for Your goodness’ sake, O Lord.

 

Good and upright is the Lord; therefore He teaches sinners in the way.

 

The humble He guides in justice, and the humble He teaches His way.

 

All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth, to such as keep His covenant and His testimonies.

 

For Your name’s sake, O Lord, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.

 

Psalm 25:4-11

 

There is a faithful saying: “All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful toward those who keep the demands of his covenant.” Some of God’s paths for us are rough and rugged, others tedious and boring, but all are filled with His love and faithfulness. When we come to the end of our journey and know what we then will know, we will say, “God’s path was best for me.”

 

Our path may have obstacles, but God will lead us.
