DEAL BOUNTIFULLY WITH YOUR SERVANT
The Psalmist desired to be a servant of God;
He asked for bountiful blessings from the LORD.
He was not asking for material blessings actually;
He desired blessings that are significant spiritually.
He was but a stranger in a world that was unfriendly;
He would need the blessing of grace and mercy.
He desired to have God open his eyes to behold;
Wondrous truths from God that would make him bold.
He sought to be a servant of God with earnest;
He will forsake sin and seek after righteousness.
This was a heartfelt desire that was sincere;
He would seek to keep his heart strong and pure.
His heart longed for God’s judgments greatly;
He was drawn to seek the LORD diligently.
To be servant of God was his heart’s intent;
To the world’s temptations he would not bend!
