Psalm 23:2 ~ “He makes me lie down in [fresh, tender] green pastures; He leads me beside the still and restful waters.” (Amplified Bible)
Have you ever been with a group of people, you all want to go to a place but only one person knows how to get there? You all decide to follow that person, so you hop into your vehicles to get in line behind them so they can lead you to your destination. I’ve had a few situations like this that didn’t go as smoothly as we expected it to. One time, the lead driver got lost. He took the wrong exit on the highway and we ended up driving 10 miles out of the way before we realized it was wrong. Another time, the lead driver left us. She wasn’t used to having people follow her; she drove too fast and darted in and out of traffic. We ended up losing a car in the group because they weren’t able to keep up. We have to be careful who we choose to follow, not everyone is equipped to get us where we need to go, but The One you CAN trust is God. I want to remind you today that He won’t steer you wrong. As much as we THINK we know the way, without Him in front, we’re forever lost. God wants the best for you, He has green pastures waiting on you; won’t you allow Him to lead you beside the still and restful waters of life? He’s already been where you’re going; it only makes sense to follow His lead!
