lost under His supervison

After 175 amazing verses on God’s Word and it’s
transforming power the psalmist still admitted that
he “has gone astray like a lost sheep”. Psalm 119:176
He knew that the Word of God had the answers.
He knew that his soul would return back to the dust
without the quickening power of the Word.
He knew that he needed to hide the Word in his heart
that he might not sin against God.
He was so well educated, yet so vulnerable and weak.
We can often identify with his cry for help:
“Seek your servant!”
We get so easily lost in the world,
lost in our circumstances, lost in our own soul.
Our emotions continue confusing us with their mixed
signals. Our past claims it’s right to be remembered
and the god of this world makes sure that we get our daily
invitations to his banqueting tables.
“I do not pray that you should take them out of the world,
but that you should keep them from the evil one.”
John 17:14
It looks like God is very familiar with the situations
that we have been placed in.
He will be glorified as he continues keeping us through
the daily ends of the world.
