 Directions "I have considered my ways and have turned my steps to your statutes." It seems like a lot of Christians want to find God's direction for their lives, but many overlook the most obvious directional device God has provided: the Bible. It's our textbook for wisdom and understanding. It's our formula for dealing with problems. It's our road map for when we have lost our way. God's directions for our life – or His "will" – can be divided into two categories: His universal will and His specific will. God's universal will is clear and indisputable because it is spelled out in His Word. Its God's will, for example, that you trust Christ for salvation, obey your parents, share your faith, remain sexually pure, pray, and so on. God's specific will includes details like whom God wants you to date and marry, what college you should attend, and what career God wants you to choose. You won't find a verse in the Bible that says something like, "You shall attend State University and prepare for a career as a fruit-fly breeder," or "You shall date and marry that cute girl you met at the health club." But as you commit yourself to following the universal directions God put into the Bible, He will start showing you His specific directions for you. Prayer |
