'The path of right-living people is level.
The Leveler evens the road for the right-living.
We're in no hurry, God.
We're content to linger in the path sign-posted with Your decisions.
Who You are and what You've done
are all we'll ever want.
Through the night my soul longs for You.
Deep from within me my spirit reaches out to You.'
Isaiah 26:7-9 {The Message}

Any time I walk on a path, I think of Him and His leading, drawing me. Thank you so much for reminding me.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on that path picture, CaryJo ... especially the ones that twist and turn with surprises at each corner!

"Through the night my soul longs for you..." (This is my prayer and may it be so, Lord).
ReplyDeleteI have to say that nothing says it quite like The Message Bible.
And I agree with you about The Message, Dina ... no doubt!

Because HE is my LEVELER, HE has a way of making every crooked way straight and making uneven things even just so that I can walk the path that HE has prepared for me - even in the presence of enemies! Be blessed.
