Tuesday’s Devotion – Godly Guidance

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39 NIV

My Lenten sermon series theme is wandering in the wilderness.   Last week we defined our wilderness as places of anxiety and despair. They are places out of our comfort zone.  In my sermon “Where Am I?” I spoke about recognizing that we are lost from God and need to turn towards God.  We need to ask where we are and where we would like to be.  This Sunday we ask, “Who Will Be Our Guide?”  The scripture above says that nothing can separate us from the love of God.  Scripture describes God as our light and our salvation.  With God as our guide we should be able to stay on the right path.  Yet there aren’t clear, definite instructions on how to hear God and feel God’s guidance.  This week in preparation for the sermon or perhaps a message you might hear elsewhere if you aren’t in Hapeville, let’s meditate on how we hear God speaking to us. 

Holy God, help us to hear what you are saying to us as individuals and as a church.  Bless us today and guide us along the right path.  We ask in Jesus’ name. Amen.

In Christ,
Paige
