Acknowledge God in all you do.

Proverbs 3:6
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.


Has there ever been a time when you have had to make a big decision over something?
I am sure we have all been in that situation.  We've maybe pondered over it for days,
maybe weeks, then we finely make the decision.  But what happens if we realise maybe a
few days later that the decision we made had been the wrong decision?


Why did we make the wrong decision?  Answer: We didn't go before God in prayer.  We made
 the decision on our own merit.  Or we did go before God, but we closed our ears to his wise
instructions.


In Proverbs 3:6 we are instructed to seek his will in everything, not just in some things but everything.
And if we do this he will guide us and show us the true and right path to take.


In verse 5, we are told to trust him and not lean on our own understanding.  When we lean on
some one we are expected to be supported by strong arms so that we would not fall.
God has strong arms to support all of us, but we must trust him in everything.




  Psalm 32:10
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; but he who trusts in the Lord, mercy
shall surround him.


May our choices today not result in regret, but rather be wise and God- honouring.


               In You, O Lord, we take delight,
                  our every need You can supply;
                   we long to do what's true and right.
                      So,Lord, on You we will rely ( D  De Haan)


  Present choices determine future rewards.
