Keeping it on the Level

How do you stay balanced in your life? How do you discern God’s good will and clear pathway for your life? What keeps you steady, stable, and sure footed?
It can be challenging to navigate the complexities of this life. As followers of Jesus we seek the will of God and his direction and blessing in all that we set out to do. We need God’s leadership, direction, and design for our lives. We need God’s Spirit to lead us and to direct our paths and footing on solid, smooth, and sure ground.
The Psalmist writes of this wisdom of the will of God, saying, “Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!” (Psalm 143:10, ESV).
We can count on God’s faithfulness to teach us and to direct us in his good will. God is faithful to instruct us in his ways and to give us his good Spirit to lead us on a level plain.
May we keep our steps on the level as we trust in our God to teach us his will, and to give us his good Spirit to lead our way through this life on level ground.
A Prayer for Trustfulness in Times of Worry and Anxiety: “Most loving Father, you will us to give thanks for all things, to dread nothing but the loss of you, and to cast all our care on the One who cares for us. Preserve us from faithless fears and worldly anxieties, and grant that no clouds of this mortal life may hide from us the light of that love which is immortal, and which you have manifested unto us in your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (#80, Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
