Teach me, O LORD, the way of your statutes; and I will keep it to the end. (34) Give me understanding, that I may keep your law and observe it with my whole heart. (35) Lead me in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it. (36) Incline my heart to your testimonies, and not to selfish gain! (37) Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways. (38) Confirm to your servant your promise, that you may be feared. (39) Turn away the reproach that I dread, for your rules are good. (40) Behold, I long for your precepts; in your righteousness give me life!

“Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things” Lord, how much time do I waste in a day with activities that do not honor or glorify You? I need to learn to judge every moment of my life by its impact on the advancement of Your Kingdom. Help me, Lord, for the Evil One is sly and devious and I am easily persuaded. Just a few minutes spent in idleness, not even resting in You, won't hurt and it will be refreshing. I fall for it every time. Give me the will to guard my time so that it is utilized for You.
