Psalms 25:5. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
We need not only to have the path shown to us, but to be led into it, for we are like babes just learning to walk, we must have a finger that we may hold, or a hand that we may lean upon: "Lead me in thy truth, and teach me." That is the second time that David has prayed for the Lord to teach him; and as long as we are here, we also shall each one need to pray, Teach me. What is a disciple but as learner? His daily cry must be, "Teach me: for thou art the God. of my salvation." There is another grip of the hand of faith. I have taken thee to be my salvation, O my God! I trust nowhere else, "On thee do I wait all the day," expecting everything from thee,-tarrying thy leisure, but tarrying hopefully, expecting to be blessed.
