I must perform my vows to you, O God; I will render thank offerings to you. (13) For you have delivered my soul from death, yes, my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of life.

Yes, Lord, my vows to You of complete and total obedience can only be executed if I listen to the guidance of the Holy Spirit. In no manner, are my vows to You of any consequence in my own strength; it is only through You and the strength and power of the Holy Spirit. This is not to provide an excuse for failure but to acknowledge my responsibility to listen and obey.
