The
Recipe for Directed Success
Trust
in the Lord with all thine heart, lean
not to thy own understanding. In all thy
ways acknowledge Him and He will direct
thy paths.
Proverbs
3:5-6
Life
is a journey. Even as students you are
faced with many challenges that can affect
your life or the lives of others around
you. As you walk through life you are
faced with many difficult decisions that
you will have to make. Many of you will
ask yourself, "How will I know what
my direction in life is". The answer
to that question should be, "Wherever
the Lord leads me - that is where I will
go". You may say how will I know
when God is speaking to me? God tells
us that in order to hear His voice you
must be a believer on Him. In order for
God to speak to you, you must have a relationship
with Him. You must know God in order to
hear His voice. Many of you can detect
a person's voice without seeing them because
you are used to hearing their voice and
you have had many conversations with that
person. The same principle applies to
God. If you stay in constant communication
with Him, if you spend time with Him you
will be able to detect His voice. God
also says that in order to know His will
you must have faith in Him. Faith is believing
in God and knowing that He has the power
to do whatever He wants to, whenever He
wants to and however He wants to.
