The Path of the RighteousPosted Jun-16-07 07:16:13 PDT The path of the righteous is level; O upright One, you make the way of the righteous smooth. Yes, Lord, walking in the way of your laws, we wait for you; your name and renown are the desire of our hearts. My soul yearns for you in the night; in the morning, my spirit longs for you.
Isaiah 26:7-9
At times, the "path of the righteous" doesn't seem smooth at all and it isn't easy to do God's will, but we have to remember that we are never alone when we face tough times. God is there to help us through every difficulty, to comfort us, and to lead us through. God does this by giving us a purpose (keeping our mind centered on him) and giving us provisions as we travel along our journey. God provides us with relationships of family, friends, and mentors to aid us with knowledge and discernment. God gives us wisdom to make decisions and faith to trust him. Do not despair; stay on God's path. It is the only path to true joy and peace.
God bless you,
J.H.
