Psalm 16:8 I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I shall not be shaken.
Have you ever watched a blind person get led around by a guide dog? They trust that dog to guide them round obstacles and keep them away from danger.
If we were more like a blind person, depending on a guide, and less like a seeing person telling the dog where to go, we may just stay out of trouble!
God is trying to guide us through the Holy Spirit. If we are willing to listen to Him and depend on Him to keep us safe – just maybe we will succeed more often!
