“There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, But the end thereof are the ways of death.”Proverbs 16:25 KJV. One of the most difficult and humbling things for us to learn is, that we were not created to find our own way. We were designed to be led and directed by God. Without Him to lead us, we are like a man in the ocean with no sun, moon or stars. We have no idea what is the right way. When we are young we get many ideas about what we want to do and where we want to go. And to us, they seem right. We allow ourselves to be influenced by this ungodly world and by our own selfish flesh. And while ‘our way’ may seem like the right way, we soon discover that it brings spiritual death and destruction. But what a joy it is to discover, that there is a right way! It is following Jesus Christ Who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Jeremiah 10:23 tells us, “…it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps”. Let us humble ourselves to follow our Saviour and always let Him be our Guide.
