DAILY MEDITATIONS ON THE PSALMS

Each morning I spend 30 minutes, more or less, researching and writing on a passage of scripture. This is principally a form of spiritual self-discipline. But comments and questions are welcome.

Steadfast love and faithfulness will meet; righteousness and peace will kiss each other. Faithfulness will spring up from the ground, and righteousness will look down from the sky. The Lord will give what is good, and our land will yield its increase. Righteousness will go before him, and will make a path for his steps. (Psalm 85: 10-13)

The lighted way and true path leads to God. Our destination is God. We come from God, we seek a return to God.

For some of us the true path is straight, level, and pleasant. For others there are floods, rock-slides and bandits. I have - almost every day - left the path for awhile. Returning to the path is usually easy. Occasionally I have gotten lost.

I have at times been certain I was on the right path, but eventually found I had chosen badly. This is not a mindless afternoon walk. This is the journey of a lifetime.

Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth... (Psalm 86: 11)
