Our Father Will Direct Our Ways

This is what the Lord says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go. John 48:17

God indeed will direct us in the way that we should go. If only we would listen to Him! 

When I left home at a very early age my father cried. That was not the path he would have chosen for me. Young people often follow in ways that their parents would not choose for them. Sometimes, it turns out for the good; sometimes it doesn't. Parents are human and they make mistakes, too. They do not always know what is best for their children. But, most of them do want their children's lives to turn out well; for their children to live in peace and in safety and even prosperity. The intentions of most parents are good; but, not always.

We have a Father in heaven who actually does know what is best for us. He directs us in the way that we should go. Listen to Him! Follow in the way that He directs you to go so that all may be well with your soul.

God's Peace - Pr. J
