Which Way is the Right Way?

"Every man's way is right in his own eyes, but the Lord weighs the hearts.  To do righteousness and justice is desired by the Lord more than sacrifice." -Proverbs 21:2-3 (NASB)

Listening to the news can remind us that there are many issues, opinions, and solutions.  We can hear debates on any given issue, hearing different ways to go about the things we face.  Each person may feel that his or her opinion or way is the right ones, but what makes them truly right?

God knows what is in our hearts.  He wants us to pursue righteousness and justice.  When we reflect on and question the "right way" in our lives, we need to think about all that God teaches us and how to walk in righteousness and justice.  We can learn from the His Word, the Bible.  We can learn from other believers.  We should include and learn from prayer and communication with God.  We may get stuck thinking we are right in our own eyes, but God can show us the right way in His eyes.  Once we know the right way, then we can keep God's ways in our hearts and follow them!

Know the right way by communicating with and following God's teaching!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me and for showing me the right way.  Help me to follow the way that You have prepared for me.  Through Jesus I pray, amen.
