God's Guidance

"The steps of a man are established by the LORD; And He delights in his way"
-- Psalm 37:23 / New American Standard Bible

God is intensely interested in each of us, and He will guide our steps if we serve Him obediently.  When we sincerely offer heartfelt prayers to Him, He will give direction and meaning to our lives - but He won't force us to follow Him.  To the contrary, God has given us the free will to follow His commandments ... or not.

When we stray from God's commandments, we invite bitter consequences. But, when we follow His commandments and when we genuinely and humbly seek His will, He touches our hearts and leads us on the path of His choosing. Will you trust God to guide your steps?  You should.  When you entrust your life to Him completely and without reservation, God will give you the strength to meet any challenge, the courage to face any trial, and the wisdom to live in His righteousness and in His peace. So trust Him today and seek His guidance.  When you do, your next step will be the right one.

Lord, You always stand ready to guide us.  Let us accept your guidance, today and every day of our lives. Lead us, so that our lives can be a tribute to Your grace, to Your mercy, to Your love, and to Your Son.
