What is the best thing you can do when you don't know what way to go in life? … Draw near to God and spend time with Him so that you can know Him better. In His time, at the right time, He will show you which way to go. He promises.
There is one promise you can always count on —
Think about Him in all your ways, and He will guide you on the right paths.
Proverbs 3:6 HCSB
The NASB translation says it this way: "In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight."
The secret is knowing God. The more you know Him, the more you experience His ways.
I love these words by Matthew Henry about God's guidance —
Those that put themselves under a divine guidance shall always have the benefit of it. God will give them that wisdom which is profitable to direct, so that they shall not turn aside into the by-paths of sin, and then will himself so wisely order the event that it shall be to their mind, or (which is equivalent) for their good. Those that faithfully follow the pillar of cloud and fire shall find that though it may lead them about it leads them the right way and will bring them to Canaan at last.
Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary on the Whole Bible
So today, dear friend, as you seek the right paths in life, get to know your God. Open His Word. Talk with Him. And get ready for the great adventure of knowing God as He leads you in all His ways.
Dear Lord, we draw near to You today and ask you to guide us on the right paths. In Jesus' name, Amen.
Blessings ♡ Grace
