My heart was truly gripped today as I read this. I often jokingly say that my way is the right way, but don't we all truly think that? But even more than my way or someone else's way--often we feel justified in an action because it's just right.
So this morning I am asking the Lord to weigh my heart. I know I do things that I later wish I hadn't. Or even wish I'd done things differently.
This was actually as far as I got in my Bible reading today--verse 3 of chapter 21 in Proverbs. I just couldn't go beyond it. I believe because I am asking God to weigh my heart and show me right ways I will have lots of opportunities today to choose the REAL right way instead of the "right" way I think I should go.
Will I listen to that still, small voice inside or will my own voice be louder and easier to listen to? That's it exactly--my own will probably be easier to listen to and more comfortable, but I am going to tune my ears to listen for the Spirit of God to speak throughout my day.
