Psalms 86:11 -- On Learning and Uniting Our Hearts

"Teach me thy way, O Lord; I will walk in thy truth: unite my heart to fear thy name."
Psalms 86:11


This is a good request to the Lord, asking for both instruction and for help with internal desire and motivation. We can't do it without God, and we need his help to learn what to do and to change our hearts so that we want what he wants, which is for us to become so much better than we could ever become alone.

Today, let's turn to the Lord to learn and to unite our hearts, which fight against themselves so often. To fear God in this case I think means to see God as the authority in our lives and to respect him and listen to his advice rather than rebelling. Let's walk in his way so that we can get back to him and to a better life than we can imagine.
