Lesson 5: Make me to know Your ways, O Lord, teach me Your paths.
www.bible.com/bible/59/psa.25
O Lord of hosts, I know through the word of Your grace that there is but one way which leads to life, which is strait and narrow for the flesh, beset with thorns and dangers all around, and is found by few, and still fewer walk therein. It is like a treasure hid in a field which none can find but he to whom it is shown by the Spirit. Dear Lord, there is no way but You alone. All who walk through You will find the gates of life.
There is another way which seems very pleasant to the flesh. It appears soft, smooth and broad, strewn with roses, pleasant and agreeable to the eye, but its end leads to death. On this way the whole world walks, unconcerned and without fear. The world prefers things perishable to imperishable, evil to good, and darkness to the light. They all walk on the perverse, broad and crooked way. They become faint in the way of unrighteousness. They do not know the way of the Lord. It is true, the way of error seems right in the eyes of fools. But I know through Your Spirit and word it is the certain road to the abyss of hell. Therefore, dear Lord, I entreat You to be merciful to me a poor sinner. Show me Your path and teach me Your way. For Your way is the right way, Godly, pleasant, humble, chaste, full of peace and of all good, and will lead my soul to eternal life.
