S: Give me understanding and I will keep Your law and obey it with all my heart. Direct me in the path of Your commands for there I find delight.
O: *You can't continually obey what you don't understand
*teach me, give me, direct me
*We don't generally follow something we haven't been taught
*God has to teach us first about Hid Word, then give us understanding of it so we can walk in it, and then as we understand He gives us direction in the path He wants us to walk.
A: I often want to do things my way and in the order in which I see fit, but God gives me direct instructions in the how to have lasting fruit in my walk with Him. I have to allow Him to teach me first, give me understanding, and then allow Him to direct my steps. When I try to do this in the order I choose, I end up becoming discouraged and frustrated. I try to get direction from God when I haven't allowed Him to teach me and give me understanding first. I want direction, but then I don't fully understand what He is up to if I don't gain teaching and understanding first.
P: God, I rush things so often and don't follow Your timeline. I am always in a hurry a to get direction from You when I haven't asked for You to teach me and give me understanding. May I take the time to hear You teach me and give me understanding ...so I will follow You to the end with all my heart and find delight in Your ways.
