God Directs Our Journey

Scripture Matthew 2:23 And he came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophets, “He shall be called a Nazarene.”

Observation: All through the Bible it shows how God directs the paths of His children. He keeps us safe and guides to places where we can fulfill the purpose we were created for. I know in my life there were things that I wanted, but God directed me away from them to another place or vocation and when I look back on my life, I can see how God kept me safe from harm and gave my life purpose.

Application: Each day I need to call on my Lord for guidance and direction. I need to be where God wants me to be doing the things He desires me to do. This life He has given me actually belongs to Him and I want my Lord to have His way with me, because His way is going to be much better than mine.

Prayer My God, I freely give you this life as a living sacrifice, may it be holy and pleasing to You. Direct my path today that I may please You and glorify your name. I love You and my desire is to serve You.
