As you submit to God’s guidance, you will find that He has taken the incentive in your life, adjusting and rearranging where you have been off the track. You will never find His demands to be greater than that which you can accomplish in His power.

I was not ever thus,

nor prayed that Thou

shouldst lead me on

I loved to choose

and see my path

but now

lead Thou me on

—John H. Newman

Where there is no guidance, a people falls . . .

Proverbs 11:14    

Father, forgive my past willfulness and be my guide.
