Grace For Today
A man’s mind plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps and makes them sure. Proverbs 16:6 (AMP)
For me this Christian walk is not easy. Sometimes I get distracted. I begin to look at other believers walk and I take my eyes off of Christ. Some believers walk with Christ seem to be so effortless and it causes me to get all stressed out because in the words of Langston Hughes "Life for me ain't been no crystal stair." It is in those times that the Lord says to me like he said to the Apostle Peter "what is it to you", "you follow me". Remember, no matter how easy or hard your walk with Christ gets, keep your eyes on Jesus!!! It is Jesus alone who will keep you on the right path. Stay in His word and stay on your knees.
Jesus said to him, If I want him to stay (survive, live) until I come, what is that to you? [What concern is it of yours?] You follow Me!
God is creating a beautiful tapestry within our lives, though at times the thread of the tapestry appears to be unraveling. The tapestry cannot be seen with the naked eye, so to give us hope, God has given us glimpses of His grace.
