Day 15: Staying the Course

"What do You require of me, O Lord?
To do justly? To love mercy? To walk humbly before you?
Teach me so to live."

~ From today's prayer in God's Minute IV, by Dr. Robert H. Schuller

Thank You, Lord, that You teach me how to live and walk with You. Help me to recognize and acknowledge You in all my ways, for You are the God Who directs and makes plain my paths.

You go before me and make my crooked places straight.
 
 When I go in circles,
Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
 
 When I don't know which way to turn,
You lead me in the paths of righteousness for Your Name's sake.
 
 And when I stray and fall through the cracks,
You rescue me from the pit of destruction.
 
 You encourage me with signs of life along the way,
reminding me that You are indeed the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
 
 And as You lead me,
You fill me up like a broken pot shining forth Your Love.
 
Thank You, Lord Jesus.
Amen.
 
 Keeping on keeping on...

      Good morning, and welcome, Ida! I'm so delighted you stopped by.

      I remember that garden ramble well, thinking about how God leads us step by step and purposely looking for ways in which He reveals that to us. The verses just seemed to find out each photo as I revisited them yesterday.

      God bless you and your steps, my friend.

    I too like your shots and the way you chose Scripture to go with each one.

      Really, the verses found _me_! (Don't you love when that happens?!)

      Thanks so much for adding your voice to the conversation today, Abrianna... God bless you.
