God will instruct you on the way you should go!

“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.” (Psalm 32:8 NIV)

A few years ago, Susan and I took a short vacation with our daughter and her two, then five-year-old, twin girls. As we walked along together at the busy airport, the girls stayed between their mother and us and they continually looked up to make sure we had our eyes on them. And of course, we did, because we love them! We made sure they knew where to go at all times, and that they we’re always safe.

In the same way

God has “His loving eye” constantly on you. He will “instruct you in the way you should go!” And, that’s a powerful and comforting promise that you can take with you wherever you go!

Therefore

“Make me to know your ways, O Lord; teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long.” (Psalms 25:4-5 ESV)

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” (Prov. 3:5-6 ESV)

“I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you.” (Psalm 32:8 ESV) 

“And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.” (Isa. 58:11 ESV)
