Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without
wavering. Hebrews 10:23
In my walk of faith, there are occasions that if left to my
own devices, I begin to become selfish in pursuing what makes me feel happy,
and I only hear what I want to hear. I can always tell when I am
beginning to veer “off path,” because I tend to be short-tempered, impatient
and combative with my family and friends. I can typically pinpoint
the “off path” beginnings by my shortened and unfocused prayers, lack of
reading God’s Word, and going through the motions of worship at church.
It’s when we live according to God’s divine wisdom that we
walk by faith and not by our own sight. We begin to make decisions as God
would have us make them instead of based upon how we feel, and what makes us
feel “good.”
We must let the Holy Spirit guide us, not our impulses and
emotions. We must walk with God daily and allow His divine wisdom to
reign supreme in our lives.
