Psalm 25:4-5 Show me the path where I should walk, O LORD; point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.
Eugene Peterson says this…
“Trial and error is a poor strategy for learning how to live. The way of faith is illuminated with precedents and examples that can save us both the embarrassment of being foolish & the pain of making mistakes.”
Prayer: O God, even as Abraham “set out, not knowing where he was going” and arrived at the land of promise by your guidance, so I would make my way believing in your promises and guided by your commandments, looking to Jesus, the ‘pioneer & perfecter’ of my faith (Hebrews 11:8, 12:2). Amen.
