Turn my eyes from looking at worthless things; and give me life in your ways.
Psalm 119:37
Worthless things. Is that like what type of socks I wear or how many calories I eat in a day? Does that include money? What about my clothes?
I’m not exactly sure what is all under the umbrella definition of “worthless” but I do know that the second half of the verse is telling. “…and give me life in your ways.” This implies the worthless things will not give me life. Hm.
I don’t want the lifeless rewards from worthless things, I want the life that comes from the Lord.
