Sunday Psalms:

Teth

You have done many good things for me, Lord, just as you promised.

I believe in your commands; 

now teach me good judgment and knowledge.

I used to wander off until you disciplined me; but now I closely follow your word.

...

Psalms 119:65-72 NLT

This part of Psalms 119 seems to follow the pattern of acknowledging God first, then stating the problem:

The writer "wanders off", drifts, makes poor choices, gets distracted from God's heart and intent.

Knowing God's word is good, but we need something else, some deeper understanding that will call us back when we have wandered off, that will hold us close when we're inclined to wander off.

'Father in heaven, 

Give us your heart for this world, for others, for ourselves, so that when we're inclined to wander off, we will know that we are held by Unfailing Love.

Amen'
