Have you had your Joy Juice today? Listen carefully to God as He navigates you through your day.
Isn’t it much easier to follow someone’s directions when you trust that they know what they are talking about? If someone has proved trustworthy in your life, you are much more likely to cooperate with their advice & counsel.
God has proved Himself faithful…trustworthy…time after time. 1 Corinthians 1:9 in the New Living Translation says: “God will do this, for he is faithful to do what he says, and he has invited you into partnership with his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.”
Do you trust God to take the steering wheel of your life? Or do you think you know what is best? Have you decided to do the driving yourself? It’s a sure thing that when you try to take the wheel from God, you will NOT be talking to Him in the same manner as if you were trusting Him to do the driving. “Your communication with Him will be hindered. Words of gratitude will be replaced by complaining, and praise will be ruined by criticism. You will find that you won’t be able to communicate with God easily because you’ll be thinking that He should be driving better” *… or to a different location. Your journey will be filled with challenges.
May we each allow God to take the steering wheel and then sit back, rest in Him and enjoy a wonderful drive with lots of good, honest communication and…of course…joy in the Lord.
