Proverbs chapter 2, verse 20.

So you will walk in the way of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.

Oh, what a great prayer to pray.

If you're at the beginning of your day, middle of your day,

the end of your day as you think about tomorrow,

to say, oh God, help me to walk in the way of the good.

Who of us doesn't want to walk in the way of that, which is good?

Think about that word.

It's pleasing.

It's right.

It's satisfying.

It's enjoyable.

It's to be desired.

That which is good is to be desired. That which is fruitful.

That which is abundant. Oh, we all want to walk in the way of the good and keep to the paths of the righteous.

Because these go together. So this is kind of the parallel language we see in many

different proverbs walking in the way of the good is parallel with keeping to the paths of the

righteous. So it is good to walk in righteousness, to walk according to God's word. That is what is good. That is what is

abundant. That is what is satisfying. That is what is to be desired. So God, we pray. We pray today.

For those who are listening and about to go to bed, thinking about tomorrow, help us today,

tomorrow to walk in the way of the good.
