8. I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way whcih thou shalt go. Here the Lord is the speaker, and gives the psalmist an answer to his
prayer. Our Saviour is our instructor. The Lord himself deigns to teach his
children to walk in the way of integrity; his holy word and the warnings of the
Holy Spirit are the directors of the believer’s daily conversation. I will guide thee with mine eye. As servants take their cue from the master’s eye,
and a nod or a wink is all that they require, so should we obey the slightest
hints of our Master, not needing thunderbolts to startle our incorrigible
sluggishness, but being controlled by whispers and love-touches.
