Reading for Today:
Proverb Chapter 4
Gold Nugget
Verse 12: “When you walk, your steps will not be
hindered, and when you run, you will not stumble.”
Commentary
The Lord has proven himself to be true over and over
again. It sure brings a lot of peace knowing that He always upholds His
promises. When He says He will keep you, provide for you and make a way for you
- He does. Today’s “Gold Nugget” tells us that obeying His commands will ensure
that "When you walk, your steps will
not be hindered, and when you run, you will not stumble". I have been
walking with Him for many years now, and I can assure you of His ability to
provide for me and protect me. He has continually made a way when there seemed
to be no way. He has delivered me when I felt most trapped and fed me when I
was most hungry. The road has had many rough spots, but I can tell you that He
keeps moving me along. He has carried me when I couldn't walk and spoke for me
when I couldn't talk. He is my God, my King, my Savior and friend. He is there
when no one is and keeps me warm when I am cold. He is my comforter, my
confidence and my courage. He is the only constant in a world full of ups and
downs, ins and outs. He keeps my foot from stumbling when I should have fallen
and lifts me up when I couldn't be risen. He loves me when I am unlovable and
understands me when I am confused. He disciplines me when I'm unruly and
promotes me when I am faithful. He is just, righteous, gracious and merciful.
He is worthy of all my praise and I will never be content without Him. The
world cannot offer me enough or take enough away from me to convince me to walk
away from Him. He is my everything and He will make a way for me. He is my joy
and strength and protector. He is my guardian.
Prayer
Lord, I just want
to take this day to say, "I love you". You are beautiful and keep me
in awe. Take my life, Lord. If there is anything left you can use... it's
yours. Have your way. Amen
