The Way That Seems Right

0 Comments

Proverbs 3:6-7; 16:25
Not a day goes by that you and I don’t make decisions that turn the direction of our lives. When you base your decisions on what seems right to you, flags should fly up all around when you read this verse. Its caution is so specific and so current that we need to take every word seriously. The problem is all of this only “seems right to a man” because our minds are darkened by sin, our hearts are impatient for pleasure, and our wills are weighed down with the old nature and the inclination to sin. Trust God with everything you’ve got, ask Him for wisdom, and He will make the path of your life plain and straight. He’ll make it so you don’t have to waste a lot of time going down roads that just seem right. He will lead you to a path you know is right in God’s eyes.

1. When I look back at choices I’ve made, did I decide based on asking God for wisdom or what seemed right to me?

2. What happened?

Challenge: Pray this simple prayer for God’s guidance. Father, I know I need to trust You in everything. I also know that I go my own way more than I should. Help me to pursue Your will for me and even more than this, to pursue You with all I am. I know if I’m pursuing You, I’m on the right path. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
