On the Way

The steps of a man are established by the LORD, And He delights in his way. When he falls, he will not be hurled headlong, Because the LORD is the One who holds his hand. (Psalms 37:23-24)

Lord, thank You for establishing my steps.

I would like to think that I will walk every day in a way that is pleasing to You. I would like to think that I have reached that point in my journey where every step is sure; but I haven’t. Because of my own stubborn will, there are times that I stray from the path You have prepared for me. I choose to go another way. I get on a path that is full of ruts and rocks, and I stumble.

Thank You Lord that You have promised that You will never take Your eye off me. When I wander from the way, You will point me back in the right direction. When I stumble, You will grab my hand and keep me from falling headlong into disaster. When I fall, You will pick me up, bind my wounds and show me the way I must go.

Thank You Jesus for walking with me.
