{30 Days of Adoration} April 3

Perfect Leader

"So He humbled you, allowed you to hunger, and fed you with manna with which you did not know nor did your fathers know, that He might make you know that man shall not live by bread alone; but man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord." Deuteronomy 8:3

Father, You humble us. Sometimes by circumstances we could never imagine having to go through and sometimes just by Your sweet kindness towards us. You teach us in every mountain top and every valley to trust You and You alone. Everything that comes our way is used to point us, direct us and lead us to Your loving arms. We alone live, because You spoke us into being, we only have the breath and life, and days of joy because You hold us up and You bless us. [¹⁷ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning. ¹⁸ Of His own will He brought us forth by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of firstfruits of His creatures.] Glory to You, Lord!! Praise You, Father, who takes delight in Your creation. Delight in conversations, delight when we ask You for what You already know that we need. Delight in giving us what we as in Your will. Praise You that Your plan is always better than anything we could envision for ourselves. That Your thoughts toward us are always to give us a future and a hope. [Jeremiah 29:11] Lead me, Lord!
