We have all made choices and decisions that didn’t give us what we thought should happen. Sometimes this has been our fault, sometimes it has been the fault of others, sometimes its simply been the fault of circumstances. But one thing can always be counted on! When we are allowing God to be our source of direction we can surely know it is the right choice. Rebekah Nolt has illustrated this beautifully in a special way: The will of God will never take you, Where the grace of God cannot keep you, Where the arms of God cannot support you, Where the riches of God cannot supply your needs, Where the power of God cannot endow you. The will of God will never take you, Where the spirit of God cannot work through you, Where the wisdom of God cannot teach you, Where the army of God cannot protect you, Where the hands of God cannot mold you. The will of God will never take you, Where the love of God cannot enfold you, Where the mercies of God cannot sustain you, Where the peace of God cannot calm your fears, Where the authority of God cannot overrule you. The will of God will never take you, Where the comfort of God cannot dry your tears, Where the Word of God cannot feed you, Where the miracles of God cannot be done for you, Where the omnipresence of God cannot find you.

Here are some scriptures that can truly inspire us to know how God wants us to live, not only in our senior moments, but always: “I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living” – Psalm 116:9 “This is the way, walk in it” – Isaiah 30:21 “What does the Lord require of you but to do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God” – Micah 6:8 “Just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God” – I Thessalonians 4:1 “Walk in love” – Ephesians 5:2 “Walk in the Spirit” – Galatians 5:16 Never question God or His Will. It will be fabulously great for all of us, all the time. Till next time, Don Johnson, Kirby Pines Chaplain Walk in Love. - Ephesians 5:2
