He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his ways.
~Psalm 25:9
Think back with me to the kitchen when you were a little one learning the secrets of your mom, grandmother and possibly your great grandmother. They knew you were there to have fun and get your fingers sticky and dirty with all the flour and eggs. As you were listening to their instructions on what to do when and loving every dirty finger minute of it something happened that you didn't count on. As you humbly let them guide you you learned how they made things by doing what they said not by following a recipe. You can look back to that time and remember looking at that dough and thinking how it felt and what it looked like and the smell of it, so when you make your own now you can remember and make it perfect just like your people have all these years. And if you have little ones around you can pass along the family secrets as well.
Gods direction is no different than what was already mentioned above. He knows we are there and when we humbly come to him he directs our lives in ways we never knew we could go. He is always there waiting for us to ask him for his help and what we should do in this or that matter. You may think of it in the same context as making a dough. You are there to have fun and be with God and as you spend time with him something happens you didn't realize, all this time he has been teaching you and training you for the next in your life. This happens step after step of the recipe. In the end we will be a fragrant offering to the Lord by our obedience in the areas God works with us. No matter what it is that God teaches us his ways are perfect. It is always something that we need for the next in our lives. If we just humbly sit at his feet we will know what we need when we need it. Take the time to humbly go before the Lord today and let his ways become your ways. You'll be glad you did!
God Bless...
