The author of Psalm 25 provides an appropriate prayer for all of us who seek to find meaning, connection, purpose in our busy lives. Let us put ourselves into it as if it were our own prayer, slowly, prayerfully reading and reflecting; we will find peace and direction.
The Lord is good and upright.
He shows the path to those who stray,
he guides the humble in the right path;
he teaches his ways to the poor.
His ways are faithfulness and love
for those who keep his covenant and law.
Lord for the sake of your name
forgive my guilt, for it is great.
If anyone fears the Lord
he will show him the path he should choose
His soul shall live in happiness
and his children shall possess the land.
The Lord's friendship is for those who revere him;
to them he reveals his covenant.
My eyes are always on the Lord;
for he rescues my feet from the snare.
Turn to me and have mercy
for I am lonely and poor.
Relieve the anguish of my heart
and set me free from my distress.
See my affliction and my toil
and take all my sins away.
Redeem Israel, O God, from all its distress.
Bro. Rene
