offensive road

Psalm 139:23-24 (JDV)

Psalm 139:23 Investigate me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my concerns.
Psalm 139:24 See if there is any offensive road in me; guide me toward the permanent road.

offensive road

I have traveled to several countries. There are some offensive roads out there. Dirty, deceptive, and dangerous.

The psalmist asks God to investigate him, and all the roads in his life. He wants to be guided toward God’s permanent road — the one that leads to his will. That’s a good prayer for us as we begin this new year.
