Daily Scriptures 9/16/08

Scripture: Jeremiah 10:23 O LORD, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

Nugget: Many people believe that they are “self-made”; they don’t believe that someone else is in control of their lives. Too bad they don’t know that God is the one who directs everything: our steps, paths, and plans. Of course we have to be working (faith without works is dead), but God is the one who leads us into what He’s called us to do.

Quote: “There is a gift available to all of us-the gift of looking to God for direction. Here is an avenue of strength, comfort, and guidance. . . . “Look to God and live.” This is the wonderful promise given so often in the scriptures. . . . Our capacity to see and comprehend is increased only in proportion to our willingness to look. God becomes more approachable as we look to him.” –Marvin J. Ashton
