Psalms 37: 23

The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.
        


Last week I sat at my mechanics lobby area slightly sad about what I had to deal with in life. The people I don't bother, and have left alone in life kept coming back to take me down, and leave me down. I've prayed for them, I prayed for myself to change if it was me. Every time I was done praying for the situation I got a phone call about how the situation has worsen, so I started to just leave it alone and let GOD be GOD. The situation never left me alone always came knocking at my door regardless if I answered or not it kept knocking. I just didn't understand why GOD hasn't taken this out of my life. I mean I'm a pretty good person GOD. I do the best I can I try to lead a lifestyle pleasing to you.


Then today as I sat in service our pastor asked us to hear this repeatedly over and over again. He quoted Psalms 37:23, and broke it down in a way I have never looked at it before. I always read the scripture and thought "Oh okay you do the right thing, live a life that is pleasing to GOD then he will guide you". I never put my situation in to this scripture, and when I put my situation in to this scripture this is how it's translated. Every trial and tribulation you have gone through and are going through it was and is being guided by me. Even when you didn't know me or see me I was there taking the steps to get you where you need to be. Somehow being stuck in my situation didn't seem so bad after that. He has a reason why this keeps happening in my life, and I can honestly say I HAVE NO IDEA what his reason is, but the reminder was good. To know not even a single detail goes without his reason and knowledge.
