"The Guidance of God's Word"
Isaiah 30:21
New Living Translation
21 Your own ears will hear him Right behind you a voice will say, “This is the way you should go,” whether to the right or to the left.
Some people have a terrible sense of direction. They'll tell you they feel as if their internal GPS is broken. They can lose their way while driving to the store even though they'vebeen there a dozen times. Other people could be dropped into the woods at midnight with no compass and find their way out by daybreak. The “directionally challenged” are in awe of those who always seem to know exactly where they are and how to get to where they're headed. But when it comes to life, we're all in the same boat: none of us can find our way on our own. We must keep our eyes on Jesus at All times if we're going to navigate life as intended.
Surrendering to God's lead is liberating: the moment we do so, we're able to give ourselves to the joyful journey that is life. We can trust Him to guide us completely. Proverbs tellsus, “Give Him the credit for everything you accomplish, and He will smooth out and straighten the road that lies ahead” (3:6 voice). What a wonderful promise!
