You have made known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence.
Psalm 16:11
This is the path that we should follow: a single-minded pursuit of the character and will of God, a whole hearted devotion to the pleasure of His company and the beauty of His glory.
There is no real lasting joy in this world other than the joy of His presence.
(adapted from Chris Tiegreen's Walking with God)
Do we have this JOY? Perhaps God is not most important in our lives? Do we pursue his Joy in the same manner that we pursue our own imitations of joy? What is it that obstructs our path? Things? People? Work? Studies? Entertainment? Just plain apathy?
Lord, illumine our path!
