This day is God's. What would He have you to do in it?

“Show me Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths.” Psalm 25:4

Isaiah prophesied that God’s people would hear the voice that said, “This is the way; walk ye in it.” (Is. 30:21) David asked God to show just such a way to Him. We realize that God has given to us the “Big Picture”. We know how to be saved. We know the Ten Commandments. We know simple truths that apply to our lives every day. But do we know the way for our life today. God told Joshua to have the people stand back away from the Ark of the Covenant when they were ready to pass into the Promised Land. He told them to stand back because, “you have not passed this way before”. (Josh. 3:4)

It is true that we have lived many days before this day, but we have never lived this day before. This day we need to know what God would have us do. Today we need to have God teach us His paths. How does He want us to glorify Him today? What makes today unique in our life with God? What way would He have us live today that we didn’t live yesterday and may not need to live tomorrow. Each day is new and each day we need to have Him show us His path for today.

Dear Father, Let me be sensitive to know Your path for my life this day. Amen.
