Which Way, Lord?

Psalms 143:8 Cause me to hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, For in You do I trust; Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, For I lift up my soul to You.

As we near the end of 2020 and look forward to 2021, there is no doubt that this past year has been one that brought many challenges. Many suffered trials, tribulations, and losses. There was great uncertainty, and for many, even for us followers of Jesus, there was stress and anxiety. However, throughout all of the chaos there was one thing that was certain, beyond a shadow of a doubt...God was still on the Throne and still in control. Regardless of what lies ahead in 2021, God will still be God. He will still be the same God who readily hears our prayers. He will still be the God who walks with us, as He will never break His promise to never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrews 13:5-6). He is still the God who will be found by those of us who diligently seek Him. As in the past, when we find ourselves in a place of uncertainty, will still have a God who has the answers, and want to guide us by His Spirit. It will take a commitment on our part, a submission on our part, to walk with Him. We must seek Him in the morning, read and study His Word, pray, apply His truths to our lives, and trust that He will guide us. We must commit to loving Him by obeying His Word, and choosing His ways, rather than our own way; even when His way seems more difficult. Our God did not abandon us in 2020, and will not abandon us in 2021. For even when we are faithless, He remains faithful. He will show us which way we should walk.

Today, God extends an invitation to you to accept His free gift of salvation (Rom 6:23). Will you accept it? Anyone who calls on Jesus, by faith, in repentance, confessing your sins, will receive eternal life. Do not put off calling on Him, and receive Him and His free gift of salvation today (Rom 10:13).
