Desire without knowledge is not good, and whoever makes haste with his feet misses his way.

Proverbs 19

Desire without knowledge is not good, and whoever makes haste with his feet misses his way. Proverbs 19:2

As I continue my study of Proverbs, I move on to week 7 of my study workbook, which looks at Proverbs 17-22:16.  For today, my focus is how God directs our steps and guides us in our daily lives.  Through planning, prayer, a close relationship with the Lord, we can avoid impulsive actions and decisions that take us away from Him and also cause us and others harm.  My study encourages me to meditate on Psalm 73:25, Proverbs 8:11, 10:24, 18:1, 1 Corinthians 14:1, Philippians 1:23, 1 Timothy 6:9, James 1:14-15, 4:1-4, and 1 John 2:16-17.  Thank You Jesus for guiding me and keeping me on Your path!

My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an awesome God who is a lamp for my feet, You guide me, help me stay on the path and You pick me up when I stumble – thank You Jesus.  I am undeserving of the love and blessings You pour out for me. My sin continues and it is daily.  Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome and turn from my sin towards You.  Help me love You with all of my heart soul, and mind and love others as You love me.  Help me grow in my faith.  Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength.  Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo.  Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior.  Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin.  Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others.  Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
