Psalm 23, 2
August 20, 2021
Decisions are a part of every person’s life. Work, housing, relationships, health, all areas require continual decisions. Change is continual. How do we make good decisions, right choices? Psalm 23: 3 Our Shepherd leads us in right paths, for His names sake. We’re not on our own to guess. We evaluate, research, learn and lay all that we know before our Shepherd. Psalm 119:105 ‘Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.’
The light of Scripture reveals pitfalls we might not see otherwise. Scripture reveals temptations we need to avoid. One national leader turned down a promotion to a city where he knew a previous relationship would impact his family there. That was the light of Scripture. God showed up. He was offered a better path forward, after declining what many thought was good.
