God’s Guidance

“For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end” (Psalms 48:14).

In the maze of life, we earnestly seek the guidance of God, the merciful God who leads us.  He is the God who guides us with abundant mercy.  However, we should reflect on whether we acknowledge God's guidance or live our daily lives without recognizing it.  Just as the Israelites, after crossing the Red Sea, made a golden calf while Moses went up to Mount Sinai to meet God, calling the calf the 'God' who led them out of Egypt, we often live lives that deny God's guidance despite receiving it.  Nevertheless, God, in His great mercy, continues to illuminate our path and guides us through the indwelling Holy Spirit, who teaches us all the good teachings of Jesus.  Moreover, Jesus, our shepherd, nurtures us, ensuring that we lack nothing and empowering us to run vigorously toward the promised land, the heavenly kingdom.  We express gratitude for the guidance of our Triune God.
