The Christian life is a journey. The Holy Spirit is our guide; He leads us daily. He is guiding us to what is best for our lives. The key to a successful and enjoyable journey is to follow Him. To follow Him is basically to obey Him.
Most of the time, we get impatient with His timing. We try to do things according to our own timetable, and we end up taking our lives into our own hands. This, then, will lead us to a dead end, and we have no choice but to go back to the starting line. The good news is God is there waiting to take the lead again and show us the right way. The Lord has our journey perfectly planned. We need to fully understand that He loves us, that He is good and that we can trust Him.
Prayer Starter: God, Your Word says that You direct the steps of the godly. I trust You to guide me on the journey You have for me. I know that when I get sidetracked, You will always be there to help me to the right path.
