Devotional – December 16, 2011

VERSE:
Psalm 143:8–Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; for I trust in You. Teach me the way in which I should walk; for to You I lift up my soul.

TRUTH:
Because sin came into the world and we are born into sin, we do not naturally know how to walk in obedience to God. We must hear of God’s truths, we must trust that they are true. We must be taught what is right and how to live it, and ultimately, we must surrender ourselves to God so He can live His truth through us.

RESPONSE:
Lord, I wish I always knew to do what is right, but I don’t. I pray You will speak to me and teach me so that I will trust in You and allow You to live through me more and more each day.
