My son, do not forget my teaching,
but keep my commands in your heart,
2 for they will prolong your life many years
and bring you peace and prosperity.
3 Let love and faithfulness never leave you;
bind them around your neck,
write them on the tablet of your heart.
4 Then you will win favor and a good name
in the sight of God and man.
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
6 in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.[a]
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes;
fear the Lord and shun evil.
8 This will bring health to your body
and nourishment to your bones.
9 Honor the Lord with your wealth,
with the firstfruits of all your crops;
10 then your barns will be filled to overflowing,
and your vats will brim over with new wine. Proverbs 3:1-10
I think there’s good reason why I don’t have a vision of where my path’s leading. I’m prone to fearful balking, so I’m better off not really knowing till God drops me there 🙂 It’s sufficient that I (usually) have faith it will be a good destiny, and that I do my best each day to stay faithful–keep going, not give up.
Yes! I think this why God withholds parts of the vision from most of us.
Oh good, I’m not the only dim sheep in the herd! However…God gave me some good news during church today, yippee!!!
I love confirmation.
Me too!…even if it just seems to come in dribs and drabs 🙂
