A Lovely Picture

Psalm 73:23-24 Yet I am always with you; you hold me by my right hand. You guide me with your counsel, and afterward you will take me into glory.

What a lovely picture the psalmist paints.  Walking with Jesus at moments when all else seems to be failing. I have been seeking God for quite some time now and I am still amazed at how He brings His word to me.  He uses the Bible, other people, situations, books, nature, "coincidences" and so on.  God loves to be our guide and take us through life.  The hardest part is actually listening to what He says, once one is able to discern His voice.  This relationship takes time to build.  I have had many conversations with God over the years, and I still need reassurance from my trusted mentors that I am hearing Him and not myself.  The beauty in this verse is that even when we are a bit clueless or are doing our own thing, God is right there walking with us, making our path His path. We are refined as we go and we are set apart for Him in Christ.  There is nothing better than this journey with Jesus.
