Lord Show Me the Way!

Show Me the Way! 
Our journey in this life is not always straight or serene. At times life can seem like a complicated maze of sharp turns, sudden stops, and quick drops. Navigating this earthly journey to eternal glory is by no means an easy task. But we are blessed to have a loving God who is personally interested in each of us and is always willing to give us divine direction. We must, however, be willing to seek Him, trust Him and then obey those directions. Our loving God is not only willing and able to redeem us when we ask Him, but He is also willing to guide us, guard us and give us guidance for the journey if we allow Him.
David said to the Lord, "Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your paths." He didn't seek direction and say, "Lord, if You promise me an easy path, I'll follow it and cooperate with You." David went to the Lord before he started his journey, just like we go to our GPS today. But then David said, "Show me and teach me," and I will make my next move. Friends, when David asked God to show him His way, he wanted more than directions. He wanted God to be his teacher and personal guide through life. Let's face it; it's easy to ask God to show us where to go and what to do. It's another thing to open our hearts and minds and allow the Lord to teach us His ways. What a perfect picture of "letting go and letting God!" Friends, if you need directions today, pray for the Lord to fill you with an attitude of humility, and then trust Him as your personal leader, teacher, and GPS when you need direction on life's journey.
Onward and Upward! 
Fr. Greg+
