Jesus Calling: July 26th, 2024

Jesus Calling: July 26th

Relax and let Me lead you through this day. I have everything under control: My control. You tend to peer anxiously into the day that is before you, trying to figure out what to do, and when. Meanwhile, the phone or the doorbell rings, and you have to reshuffle your plans. All that planning ties you up in knots and distracts you from Me. Attentiveness to Me is not only for your quiet time, but for all your time. As you look to Me, I show you what to do now and next.
     Vast quantities of time and energy are wasted in obsessive planning. When you let Me direct your steps, you are set free to enjoy Me and to find what I have prepared for you this day.

RELATED SCRIPTURE:

Psalm 32:8 (NLT)
8 The Lord says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life.
    I will advise you and watch over you.

Additional insight regarding Psalm 32:8-9: God describes some people as being like horses or mules that have to be controlled by bits and bridles. Rather than letting God guide them step by step, they stubbornly leave God only one option. If God wants to keep them useful for him, he must use discipline and punishment. God longs to guide us with love and wisdom rather than punishment. He offers to teach us the best way to go. Accept the advice written in God's Word and don't let your stubbornness keep you from obeying God.

Psalm 119:35 (NLT)
35 Make me walk along the path of your commands,
    for that is where my happiness is found.

Psalm 143:8 (NLT)
8 Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,
    for I am trusting you.
Show me where to walk,
    for I give myself to you.
