Lord Guide My Way

Scripture Psalms 32:8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.

Observation: I keep wanting to make my own way and chart my own course and every time I do I get lost. God already knows where He wants me and when I arrive He blesses me. Yesterday Teri and I did a luncheon for the women’s ministry, because that is where God guided us to go. It’s easy to distinguish where God wants you and where you go off on your own. I was tired and would have loved to sleep in and I worried about doing this for some time before the event and couldn’t wait until it was over, not an attitude that honors God. Everything went smooth. The women were blessed and thanked us for a wonderful lunch. During the serving time 2 women came up to me one took my depression class. Her and her husband weren’t getting along well and she told me how the two of them are getting along great because they take the focus off of themselves. The other woman simply told me that my book saved her life. I was on the path God guided me on.

Application: I need to let God take full control of my life, it’s His anyway. I’m so tired of messing up and feeling the anxiety that comes from making wrong decisions. I know the results when I’m on God’s path and when I stray off of it. I need to take this self pleasing desire I have, because it doesn’t work and make it a God pleasing desire.

Prayer: My Lord help calm my spirit and take this constant anxiety from my spirit. Put me on the path you want me on and keep me there please. I feel so lost and just want to come home most of the times, but I know I’m only here because it is your will. Show me how to fulfill the purpose you have created me for each day. I love and trust you, my Lord.
