My Devotional JournalToday’s Our Daily Bread Author, Marvin Williams …  USE THS LNK -         writes about a cognitive scientist, David Littal, who, himself, often felt lost, finding it difficult to see the way to go in life.  And the scientist discovered that there are many people, like himself, who often feel lost in life.  And then there are others, who seem gifted to be able to easily find their way out of lite’s challenges or difficult situations.     


God’s word recognizes this reality; doesn’t it?  If my readers have taken in the scriptures shared above, many will identify with the word picture God’s word often uses  … of us Christians being like lost sheep and needing a “Good Shepherd” to come find us and lead us to follow Him all the way to HIs safe place.  Personally, I’m one who often needs a good “GPS” to guide me in life to find God’s way.  And I’ve found that God”s word is His perfect “GPS” to show us His way when we feel like lost sheep.   Again today, I’m seeking God’s way through His word.  How about you? 


My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You, … Lord … for showing me the way to go with the guiding light of Your word.


My Prayer TodayOh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... guide us, Lord, with the light of Your word, leading us to Your glory. … Amen
