Ears opened to the Lord
David’s use of this image reveals his heart attitude toward his God (Ps 40:8). Not only has he voluntarily chosen to serve the Lord for life, but the ears that are pierced as a mark of ownership are also wide open to his master’s direction.
When we belong to the Lord, our delight is to be taught by him and to do his will (Isa 50:4-5).

David's heart was so totally given to God. Would that I could be the bond-servant who had opened my ears in complete submission and obedience like David did for most of his life. Your blog continues to challenge me in my walk with Christ. Thank you Donna!
ReplyDeleteNIV has "pierced" instead of "opened" in Ps. 40:6
