Psalm 69

Boy, the Lord really challenged me this morning. I was reading in Psalms 69 and came across the following words. O God, it is You who knows my folly, and my wrongs are not hidden from you. May those who wait for You not be ashamed through me. O Lord God of hosts; may those who seek You not be dishonored through me, O God of Israel.

What a reminder that my life and actions can draw people toward the Lord or lead them away. What a challenge to guard my words, actions and reactions. People are watching. Therefore I join with Kind David in praying, Lord, may I live in such a way that people will be attracted to You. May my words and actions draw people toward you and not away from You.
