Trusting God

God is intensely interested in each of us, and He will guide our steps if we serve Him obediently. When we sincerely offer heartfelt prayers to our Heavenly Father, He will give direction and meaning to our lives, but He will not force us to follow Him. To the contrary, God has given us the free will to follow His commandments—or not. When we stray from God’s commandments, we invite bitter consequences. However, when we follow His commandments, and when we genuinely and humbly seek His will, He touches our hearts and leads us on the path of His choosing. Should we trust God to guide our steps? We should. When we entrust our lives to Him completely and without reservation, God will give us the strength to meet any challenge, the courage to face any trial, and the wisdom to live in His righteousness and in His peace. So let us trust Him today and seek His guidance. When we do, our next step will be the right one. God always stand ready to guide us. Let us accept His guidance today and everyday of our lives. Let us ask the Father to lead us, so that our lives can be a tribute to His grace, to His mercy, to His love and to His Son. — Psalm 37:22
