What Is Leading You, Guiding You, and Directing You?

Are you allowing God to lead you, guide you, and direct you?    To "lead" means to go with someone while holding them by the hand, a halter, a rope .... but in our case His word.    A "guide" is a person who advises or shows the way to others.    To "direct" means to to manage or guide by advice, helpful information, and instruction.   It means that you help a person to get from one place to another by the shortest way without changing direction or stopping.  So again my question to you is are you allowing God to "lead" you, "guide" you, and "direct" you?

So often in life we grab hold of our circumstances and situations and allow them to manage our reaction, our feelings, and our thoughts.    It is at that point we are being led by what we are going through instead of who God is.    Then there are times when we seek advice from whomever will give it.   The question is .... is it God ordained advice?   Are they speaking from the heart and mouth of God?   You have to know in which direction a person is guiding you and directing you.  If it is not closer to God .... it is at that point you should realize you are going the wrong way. 

Make it your determined purpose to be led, guided, and directed by your Father, Creator, and King.   He loves you and He will always lead you into a closer relationship and walk with Him.   Amen.
