Psalm 19

The words that begin verse 14 are in a song I remember from years ago.  The phrase describes two actions that we can offer God. Two actions that are involved in every part of our daily living.  The first is the words that we speak. My first consideration was the words that I speak about or to God.  But David doesn't limit our words to worship and praise. So I wonder if David intended us to consider if our everyday words are pleasing to God?  The second actions deal with the topics we ponder everyday.  Once again David doesn't limit our meditations to the subject of God's Law. So I wonder if David hopes that we'll examine our casual thinking and adjust those thoughts until God is pleased by our mental focus?
It took me almost 2 minutes to read this psalm.
