In a world full of turmoil, confusion, and mistrust, it’s easy to be misguided without a solid core foundation. God is our best source for help and guidance. Who better to guide you when confronted with a difficult decision. We have to listen because God has multiple ways of helping. Prayer is only one way God uses to contact us. God uses nature, others, loved ones, His ways are unlimited. “Teach me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul,” (Psalm 143:8).
God loves to strengthen us when we are weak. It’s in our weakness that God’s power shines through us. And he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness,” (2 Corinthians 12:9). Pride often gets in the way. I often think that I can do it my way instead of letting God do it his way. God loves us and so much wants to help us, but I need to surrender my will to the will of God, and let Him guide me.
God guides us when our intentions are honorable and our interest align with his will. If our actions glorify God he will bless them and they will succeed. Acting contrary to God’s will is dangerous. “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way to death,” (Proverbs 14:12). God’s way and guidance never fails, man’s way lead to death. My prayer is we live life through God’s guidance; love and blessings, Carby.
