Oh, how I love Your
law! It is my meditation all the
day. Psalm 119:97
Our very independent and sometimes stubborn children often
fail to listen or seek my advice before doing things. For instance,
our oldest son was balancing himself between the edge of the table and
chair in the kitchen the other day after I repeatedly warned him to be careful
as he might fall. He refused to come
down, so I stepped into the other room for a moment and heard a loud crash
followed by the sounds of crying. I was
able to make a good lesson out of this and it goes to prove that sometimes we
just have to fail and learn from our own experiences before we listen to
other’s advice.
Anytime we are facing important issues or decisions, we
should always seek our loving Father’s advice.
There truly is no topic to big or small that we cannot seek God on. One of the best places to begin looking for
advice is the Word of God, but often times, we seek other people’s input and
advice and do not seek God in the process.
We must learn to read and study His Word and then learn to
apply it to our lives, regardless of what issue or decision we are facing. In doing so, we tap into His infinite wisdom
and can learn how to respond to any and all situations that we will face during
our lifetime.
