Righteousness Street

Psalm 85: 13

Righteousness will go before Him, and will make His footsteps into a way.

What a beautiful picture this presents! That God's perfect Righteousness will pave a road, a street, with the footsteps of Christ! 

O Father, set my feet on that Road! To follow my Lord closely, hard on His heels! That Righteousness would pave over all the stones, all the potholes and obstacles that would have caused me to stumble; that I would have Your wisdom and understanding and discernment. 

Father, place Your arm around my shoulders, and Your hand over my mouth, that I would follow Your lead out of my ways into Your path for me, with Your thoughts and attitudes, not mine. 

Put Your kindness under my tongue, Father, and fill my heart with Your love and compassion, to overflow into my attitudes and out my mouth. 

My life is Yours, my Lord, my times are in Your hand. Glorify Yourself in all the events that are now unfolding and working out. And continue to send out workers into Your fields that are white to harvest; find every one of Your lost sheep, to draw them all into the safety of Your One Fold with One Shepherd. 

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
