My Steps are Ordered

I would like to start this post by asking prayer for a friend......Sam and I visited one of our High School classmates at the hospital last evening.    As of yesterday, he has been in the hospital for a month and a day.    The treatment for Leukemia has taken a hard toll on him and his mouth is extremely cankered.   Please pray for my friend!

                  *************************************

God knew my name before I was even born!!  He ordered my steps from the very beginning.  I am here for a God given purpose.  So, what am I going to do to fulfill this purpose that God has given??

I must first, be willing to follow God's word by reading my bible and by doing all that I can to understand His words.   Then I must spend quality time in prayer and in fellowship with my Heavenly Father.   

Perhaps God is using my life to be a lesson for someone else!!  When I am totally connected to God, then I am able to make good choices.  People are watching.....if I say that I am a child of God.....then, I can assure you that people will be watching....

What excites me is that not only do they get to see me living for the Lord, but they also get to witness the Blessings that God bestows upon me.   

The Lord directs the steps of the godly, He delights in every detail of their lives.
                                                    Psalm 37:23



God's Mercies are New Every Morning....

  5. The neatest and yet the hardest part is 'allowing' God to direct our steps. We have FREE WILL to make choices and decisions.. With God's help we will make the best decisions possible. However, if we take the steps that God intends for us, we MUST listen to God --and follow Him!!! Many times we humans choose to do it ourselves instead of following the steps God intends... Life is HARD ---and we should never say that it's easy! Thanks be to God.
    Hugs,
