R. (35a) Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.
Blessed are you, O LORD;
teach me your statutes.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.
In your statutes I will delight;
I will not forget your words.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.
Open my eyes, that I may consider
the wonders of your law.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.
Make me understand the way of your precepts,
and I will meditate on your wondrous deeds.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.
Give me discernment, that I may observe your law
and keep it with all my heart.
R. Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands.
Lead me in the path of your commands,
for in it I delight.

~Psalm 119:12, 16, 18, 27, 34, 35
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Your word, O Lord, is truth;
consecrate us in the truth.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
~John 17:17b, 17a
God's truth and commands matter! I really loved the Psalm and Alleluia from the mass readings for today in my Catholic faith/church! I decided to share both in my blog today! We need to give thanks to God, knowing His word and commands are truth for us and provide the way to how we should live as we go about on this Earth School journey! We should ask each day for God to Guide us, Lord, in the way of your commands. Your word, O Lord, is truth; consecrate us in the truth! As we all know, Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life for us! We are promised life eternal in Heaven when we follow Jesus and reflect and imitate Him and His light! Each day as I pray, when I see the St. Anthony prayer of St. Anthony holding baby Jesus, with Jesus giving him His ear, I think how I want to say to Him, to lead me, guide me, instruct me, and bring me to where I am supposed to be and always accept His will be done in our lives, it is all about God's will. Yes, Guide me, Lord, in the way of your commands. For Your word, O Lord, is truth;
consecrate us in the truth!
