Psalm 119:7-24
My Pleas:
Don't let me stray from Your commands
Teach me (through the Holy Spirit)
Do not forsake me (You have promised)
Do good to Your servant, and I will live
Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in Your law
Do not hide Your commandments from me
Remove from me scorn and contempt
My Part:
I will praise You with an upright heart
I will obey Your decrees
I will live according to Your word
I will hide Your word in my heart that I may not sin against You
I will recount all the laws that come from Your mouth
I will obey Your word
My soul is consumed with longing for Your laws at all times (Not usually)
For I keep Your statutes (I try most of the time)
Your servant will meditate on Your decrees
Your statutes are my delight, they are my counselors (delight, Lord? I probably cannot say that either)
Lord, of course I want You to fulfill my pleas, but You know "my part" has not been true enough and You know I need help. Dearest Lord, thank You for Your grace. When I was first saved all of this "My Part" was true. I could not get enough of Your word. I thought about it all the time and woke up thinking about it, Lord, I need You to restore me to the joy of my salvation and revive me! Don't let me stray but convict me of unconfessed sin so I may confess and repent. Restore our fellowship to that beautiful, wonderful state of completeness!
