Have you ever been lost? I mean, in the middle of a place that you are unfamiliar with? It's easy, if you're not careful, to be wandering through a lovely landscape, take a forked path, and forget whether you went left or right. If you've ever had that experience, you also know there is nothing like seeing something that looks familiar.
There is a happiness that comes from knowing your path. I share with folks that I am a guy who likes his rut. I am a guy that has a plan for everything, and a plan in case that plan fails. I am also a guy who really doesn't like it when things don't go according to plan. Good thing GOD has all that figured out for me...
Today's word is Psalm 16:11, ESV, which reads, "You make known to me the path of life; in Your presence there is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore."
It is through GOD that I know the path that I should take. Now, I still wander off from time to time; I still get distracted every now and again. However, I have nothing to fear IF I will just follow the path that He has laid out for me, the path of life. JESUS came to give us life, and life more abundant. All we have to do is follow the path.
If we will do just that, follow GOD'S path, we will find that, in His presence is FULLNESS OF JOY. We will NEVER experience true joy outside of GOD'S presence. There are those who search for it here and there, to and fro, and find themselves desperately lacking. Why? Because true joy comes from GOD, where we will find pleasures forevermore.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
