I Will Instruct You

I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

-- Psalm 32:8


In the end, leaders lead...by example.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sake he became poor, so that you by his poverty might become rich.

-- 2 Corinthians 8:9


God’s not out to get you — He’s out to give to you.

And God’s blessings don’t pursue temporarily — but relentlessly. It’s right there in His Word: His goodness and mercy pursue me not just some days — but all the days of my life. When I’m in a wilderness, His mercy and goodness run after me. When I’m hurting, His grace hunts for me. When I’m plagued by problems, His goodness pursues me.

Surely Your goodness and unfailing love will pursue me all the days of my life…

-- Psalm 23:6

Your beauty and love chase after me …

-- Psalm 23:6
