The Path of Righteousness

By Natalie Stephans

Each one of us has a path in life...God gives us the freedom to chose which path we will take in our lives. Dear gentle reader let me encourage you to chose the path of righteousness.
Whether you turn to the right or the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, "This is the way; walk in it." Isaiah 30:21
His God instructs Him and teaches him the right way. Isaiah 28:26
 
God wants the very best for you, you are his beloved child and He wants you to seek the very best in all things. We all make mistakes but even in each one of them we have the ability to rise and learn from our mistakes. We can grow in wisdom and teach others through our trials. I want you to seek the best in life not settle for second best anymore. Are you in a situation that feels hopeless? I say there is hope even when you cannot see or feel it. I urge you to seek God and His path in life for you. Many times we do not think to go to God for even the simplest things but He longs to be in every detail of your life but you must first stop and seek Him. He is a gentleman in all things and prayer has the ability to change everything..stop and pray even for just a minute..stop and pray to Him for guidance, for the right words to say, to help curb your hurt or anger in all situations, to bless others, to help with even small details like grocery shopping or finding your keys..seek Him in all things in everything. God will willingly guide your path. Just seek Him first!
 
In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:6
I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you and watch over you. Psalm 32:8 
 
Now dear reader I want you to chose the very best for your life. So often we take what we are given but I see so much wrong with that attitude. You have to dig deep to find treasures. You have to look out for the very best, often it is hidden. I chose to surround myself with all that is good. In the books that I read that inspire me to do good or that have real meaning and wisdom within their pages. The movies I watch that give God glory and  edify my spirit. The company I keep that encourages me and loves me so unconditionally. All these details.. even the way I keep my home clean and beautiful put me on the right path. God is truly in every detail of life. Let me encourage you today to invite God into your life and your heart..let Him be your guide in all things from now on. You will never be sorry and will look forward to living and choosing the right path always! 
 

Love and God bless you, Natalie Stephens
