“The steps of a man are established by the Lord, when he delights in his way;” Psalm 37:23 (ESV)
We are not living our lives on our own. When we believe and accept the gift of eternal life from God we become members of God's family and He becomes intimately involved in our lives. We benefit from this when we are willing to receive it. It is then that we recognize that God is involved much more than we realize. He knows us and He knows what is going on in our lives and He cares about us. It is not surprising that God would want us to live good lives and to follow the principles that He has outlined in the Bible. But our verse reminds us that God is actively participating by influencing us to make the right choices every day. Then when we make the right decisions God is aware and He is pleased. Our verse says that He is delighted. How then can we help to bring that about? By allowing Him to guide us and by complying with His motivations in our lives each day.
