God directs our path

God directs our paths.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

You try hard to trust God with your whole heart, but sometimes, like Peter, the wind and the waves become huge, and seem massively dangerous. We try to keep our eyes on Jesus, but sometimes we go through rough waters. Yes sometimes we walk on the water, and sometimes we can sink. That's when you remember that God asks us to let him know what is going on in our lives.

God is concerned about anything that concerns you. So when a circumstance seems Like a title wave about hit. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.

This verse doesn't only say He will direct our paths. He said in all your ways acknowledge him. Trusting Him with all your heart. Not leaning on your own understanding. Lean On HIS Understanding.

Why do we continue to carry the baggage Self-sabotage behavior and then producing the fruit of sin guilt? Yes, Consequences of our actions might be painful. Truth is Life. Jesus is Life.
We know that the Truth Shall Set Us Free. Be Free, speak the truth. Have forgiveness from God, for He is the only One that matters. 

Prayer
Father in heaven I acknowledge you, I have no idea what to do, or what to say. Forgive me for trying to lean on my own understanding.  I ask that you Direct my path, my thoughts and my words. I lean on your understanding, not my own understanding. I give you thanks Lord for in you I place my Trust.
In Jesus Christ Name Amen.

Speaking with pleasant words

Pleasant words are like a honeycomb,
sweetness to the soul and health to the bones.
Proverbs+16:24

Reflections
Speaking words of encouragement and inspiration, empowering others to do what is good in sight of the Lord, shows your spiritual maturity in your faith, and will encourage others to grow in the spirit, that they might have hope. To be the very examples of Christ,  Yeshua. The Anointed One. 


Be patiently embracing those who are not fully developed in their faith, to help build them up spiritually. Using Gods instructions through the scriptures, that one may develop endurance and overflow in confidence in His promises. Growing to be Christ like-minded towards one another.
The verses that are in the scriptures are divinely placed by the Lord. To teach us how to live.
This verse shows the very character of our Lord, and how he would like for us to be.


Prayer
May the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like minded towards one another, according to Christ Jesus. May your words be pleasant as a honeycomb. Sweet to the soul, and bring healing to the bones. May you be with one mind and one mouth to glorify God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Romans 15:1-6
