Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way.

God is more than willing to lead us every step we are willing to allow Him to lead us; but we have issues with giving other people control of our lives!

I have tried to give God as much control of my life lately but I have found it very difficult.

Listening to God amongst the clamour of the world is hard. Obeying God even when we are convinced He may have made a mistake is a challenge.

Trusting God and having faith He knows what you want is something we need to aspire to!

Jeremiah 10:23 O Lord, I know the way of man is not in himself; It is not in man who walks to direct his own steps.

No matter how much we think we are in total control of everything in our lives, God is the one who is guiding and placing our feet in the right places!

It is not what we do physically that always dictates which way we go but the spiritual side who may well change the universe right here and right now!

God is trying to dictate every step we take, but each step can be protected and encouraged through Christ!

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding;

If we were to trust in God as much as we could trust in any person, then we would fall short of the mark!

God wants us to trust in Him further and beyond anything we can trust in on earth because our version of faith or trust falls short of God’s definition of it.

God’s understanding is far and beyond anything we can grasp in our minds or even in our hearts.

These words are meant to inspire us to look for more in our relationship with God than we can understand with anyone on earth!

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.

One of the most amazing things is the fact God has chosen each one of us to be the way we are. Yes, we have got a choice as to how we react to things in our lives, but God has pointed us on each of our unique journeys.

We may struggle to understand how someone can give up everything for someone else until we find out how special love is; but when someone gives up their lives for every bad person in this world, that amazes me.

God is special and so are each one of us!
