Simply good

 

“Your laws are wonderful…
    so even the simple can understand…

Guide my steps by your word,
    so I will not be overcome by evil.” – Psalm 119: 129, 133

GOD’S direction on how we should live, in its simplest form, is that we must learn good from bad, right from wrong, through the example of Jesus. But if, instead, I allow myself to follow the complexity of directions dictated by societal norms, I will end up in many strange, disturbing places and situations. Every day it becomes increasingly apparent that the secular direction is that anything goes, and we are bombarded by propaganda aiming to enforce these self-righteous wrongs as human rights. The answer to this is also simple – just decide to follow God’s directions on how to live. Then and your life will be satisfying, useful, pleasing to Him, and will add good purpose to yourself and those you were sent to encounter. He will always be your Guide, never leaving your side, and in the long run you will not be overcome.
