Man's Own Way
Proverbs 20:24
A man's goings are of the LORD; How can a man then understand his own way?
There are two ways in which we can live this life - for GOD or for self -
either way - you serve someone - much of the time our human nature wants to make it all about ourselves - we love to talk about oursleves more then we like to listen what other people are doing -we are all selfish in that way - God is showing me more and more how I fall short - this is one area I struggle with - letting good and allow GOD to take control of my life - the flesh fights against such things constantly - we won't win this battle because it's a spiritual battle - only GOD can win it for us - often we think our way is the best way - but that's not true - God's way is always the best way -
He will never ever lead us in the wrong direction - however we ourselves will -
we will end up trying to please self over God - and that's a dead-end life - there is no life in that - it's empty and hopeless - but if we would allow GOD to show us the way in which we should go - and then follow HIM in that way - our lives would bring HIM more glory! We must be willing to set aside our wants - our desires and our needs - and not be self-centered - but instead Christ-centered - believe me - this is not easy - it's a dying to self that must take place - on our own - we will mess up - we will miss the mark -we will go the wrong way - let's pay attention to what GOD says - in HIS word - through others - and though prayer - without this -we cannot know HIM -
we must be willing to set aside what we want for HIS purpose - we must die to self inorder that CHRIST can live in us - and move though us - it's not an easy life - but it's the best life of all! Let's follow our LORD and SAVIOR to the ends of the earth -
and let's not fall prey to our own way!
Word to the wise: if we put self first - CHRIST has to take a back seat -
I want HIM in the front seat - in the drivers seat! How about you>?
BECAUSE OF CHRIST our selfish flesh will be crucified and killed!
