Proverbs 4:26

Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.
What is the instruction here to ponder the path of your feet, from God? Could it be that God is saying pay attention to where you are and where you’re going.

We are establishing our ways on a certain path throughout life, its the path that you’re on and the way, (being your thinking and attitude) inwhich you’re traveling.  The path, consist of our existing life, our career path, the love path, the spiritual path, but mostly the path of awareness.

It’s amazing how powerful we are and we don’t even know it. Our choices for self love, self care, self respect and to reach for the biggest and best for ourselves are often tainted and shortcoming. As a mature adult, I’ve grown into speaking upfront to God and others about what I would like best. Of course our Sovergn God knows what is best for us, which is most often better than what we can imagine for ourselves. God is not shaken by our high and mighty wants, it is our high and mighty attitudes He rejects. What is established now and whats to come is formed from our awareness to

• Be as we should be
• Act from self love
• Demonstrate love to others.

What is established now may have come from ways of needing to control, fear, manipulation, calculation, and insecurity. These ways have set us on a detoured path. The path to ponder on is carved out of an awareness that, it’s not personal. Whatever it is, it’s not personal. All that’s required of us is to focus on how we honor ourselves without attitude and revenge. If we can do this we eliminate conflict even when confrontation seems to be needed.

This is our faith in action. It proves we agree with God and believe we are who God says we are. This is our trust in God, in that we do our part and allow God to take care of the rest including others.

• Faith and Trust are ways to be established in our lives.
• Strength and courage are ways to be established in our lives.
• A positive attitude is a sure way to be established in our lives.
• Love is the way to be established.

Peace & Love
