Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths.

Psalm 25:4

As a child, I wanted to do my own thing and make my own plans and choices. However, in the past seventy years, I have realized my ways are often selfish and inwardly focused. God pulled me along and shaped me to follow His path.

God’s unfailing promises and the sacrificial love of Jesus, taught in church services, Sunday School lessons, Bible studies, and hymns, became the lamp unto my feet and a light to my path. The fulfillment of God’s promises and the forgiveness of Jesus has given endless peace and hope to me now and for eternity.

I pray the love of Jesus and God’s promises keep shining through my words and actions to people everywhere.

Dear Almighty God, we give thanks and praise that Your promises never fail and were fulfilled in Jesus. Amen.

Reflect: How are you shining forth God’s promises to family and neighbors?
