Psalm 85:13
Righteousness shall go before him; and shall set us in the way of his steps.

My husband and I have been saying and feeling we need to relocate and move closer to our family. This has been an ongoing issue with us for the last three years, the result-we are still here!  Why? Well, we just haven’t had a window or door open for us to do so. We in turn take that as a sign, that it is not time to go. That the LORD isn’t directing our steps “to get moving” and we only will do so, when it is God’s time and God’s will. Anything less than that – we won’t accept. Only God’s time and will for us. Because anything less than that – would be a recipe for disaster in our eyes. We place our trust and surrender our lives to Him. Jesus is LORD – above all.

Did you ever think that while you’re stuck in traffic that God is protecting you from an accident up ahead? Or when you’re waiting patiently at a red light that seems interminably long, that the reason for that long wait is God is protecting you right there too?

All things that happen-or don’t happen – happen for a reason. There isn’t anything that transpires that doesn’t account for a reason.

We will wait for the LORD (Psalm 46:10) and realize it is only Him that can guide us from unforeseeable events that we are not aware of. The Holy Spirit is gentle and will guide us with His hands of mercy and His untrammeled eyesight. When we listen, obey, meditate and serve Him justly, all things will eventually become crystal clear. The clarity will be unmistakeable, and the door and widows will open and remain so. And then all things will fall into place, like a huge puzzle that was missing key pieces to complete the puzzle.

Trust in the LORD, and He will guide your path (Proverbs 3:4) He is always there at the helm – waiting- and guiding. We just need to focus and be aware and mesh with His Word, and then in His time, all things will happen for our benefit, in the righteousness of the LORD who makes all things possible.

” My LORD – Please create in me a pure heart and guide me through all the passages and days of my life, guide me in the direction in which I should go, and hold me up while giving me Your wisdom to grasp the meaning of my days as I serve You, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”
