Proverbs 16:3
“Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be
established.”
As we go through this life many things are thrown our way to
tempt us and to draw us away from our Lord. Every day our eyes are exposed to
some of the deepest sins man has ever conceived in his mind. Our ears hear some
of the most ungodly stories and language ever devised in the heart of man.
Yet, our Heavenly Father has provided a way we can travel in
complete safety and peace on this journey. He tells us to “Commit thy works
unto the Lord”. If we will follow Him. If we love Him enough to follow His
commandments.
Our Lord will protect us and guide us through this life.
Yes, there will be times we will stumble and even fall in this sinful world.
There will be times we will stray off the path He has set us on. All because of
our sinful flesh. But, He is there to pick us up and lead us back and set us on
the way to where He will have us go.
If we would just commit our works unto the Lord these
failings and straying would be few and far between. Remember Job. It was the
Lord who permitted satan to tempt Job and to persecute Job. But, Job being a
just man, even in his time of despair and tribulation turned to God. Even when
Job's closest friends and even his wife turned against him, Job followed the
Lord and the Lord blessed him for it all.
In this journey we are on in this life, look to Christ in
all things. Show our Lord and the world your love for Christ by following His
commandments. When the temptations come, flee them and follow Christ. Leave the
lust of the world with the world and follow Christ. For it is in Christ in
which our hope rest.
Praise ye the Lord!!!
