Take the First Step

“A person's steps are directed by the LORD. How then can anyone understand their own way?” – Proverbs 20:24 (NIV)

God directs our steps. So, if God is directing your steps, don’t you think it’s time to get to stepping? What has God been telling you to do, that up to now you’re still hemming and hawing over? 

If you’re not sure where to go, how to begin, or what you should do, then you initiate the process by stepping towards God and ask Him: “Lord, what would you have me do?” Yes, it is that simple. Ain’t life grand? 

Take the first step – ask God and He will direct your steps; He promises to tell you the way…

This is what the Lord says— your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the Lord your God, who teaches you what is best for you, who directs you in the way you should go.” – Isaiah 48:17 (NIV)

Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way; walk in it.” – Isaiah 30:21 (NIV)

Yes, God will indeed tell you the way you should go, but take the first step – go to God in prayer!

Amen†
