THEN I SAID, "HERE I AM, I HAVE COME--IT IS WRITTENIN THE SCROLL. I DESIRE TO DO YOUR WILL, O MY GOD; YOUR LAW IS WITHIN MY HEART."( PSALM 40:7-8 *NIV ) God has a plan for each of us, for it is written:"I KNOW THE PLANS I HAVE FOR YOU, SAYS THELORD. "THEY ARE PLANS FOR GOOD, NOT FOR EVIL,TO GIVE YOU A FUTURE AND A HOPE." ( JEREMIAH 29:11 )
Now when we follow the path that God has for us, we findthat God is a very kind leader. Only He knows our future,and His plans for us are good and full of hope! This does not mean that we will be spared pain, suffering, or hardship, but that God will see us through to a glorious conclusion!
After all, THE PRECEPTS OF THE LORD ARE RIGHT, GIVING JOY TO THE HEART. THE COMMANDS OF THE LORD ARE RADIANT, GIVING LIGHT TO THE EYES. THEY ARE MORE PRECIOUS THAN GOLD, THAN MUCH PURE GOLD; THEY ARE SWEETER THAN HONEY, THAN HONEY FROM THE COMB. ( PSALM 19:8 & 10 ) Further, IF THE LORD DELIGHTS IN A MAN'S WAY, HE MAKES HIS STEPS FIRM; THOUGH HE STUMBLE, HE WILL NOT FALL, FOR THE LORD UPHOLDS HIM WITH HIS HAND. ( PSALM 37:23-24 )
So if you are not already walking the path thatGod has chosen for you, why not ask Him in prayer to lead you to it. For once you have found that path your heart willbecome filled with joy, and THE PEACE OF GOD, THATTRANSCENDS ALL UNDERSTANDING, WILL GUARDYOUR HEART AND MIND IN CHRIST JESUS. Amen!( PHILIPPIANS 4:7 )
