"In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct
your paths!"
Proverbs 3:6
The acknowledgment of Christ in all endeavors, results in
the assurance of direction by an omniscient mind, and an omnipotent hand.
If God in Christ can paint the blush on the bud that hangs
from the limb of the rose;
if He can make the dew drops of morning tremble like molten
diamonds on the virgin white lip of the lily;
if He can plant the rivers in lines of rippling silver;
if He can cover His valley floors with carpets of softest
green, tacked down with lovely daisies and laughing daffodils;
if He can scoop out the basin of the seven seas;
if He can pile up the granite of the mountains until they
pierce the turquoise skies;
if He can send a Niagara thundering on a mighty and majestic
minstrelsy from century to century;
if He can fuel and refuel the red-throated furnace of a
million suns to blaze His universe with light;
if He can weave on the lovely looms of the heavens, the
delicate tapestry of a rainbow to throw across the shoulders of the retreating
storm, and at even-tide fashion a fleece of crimson to curtain the couch of the
dying sun, and across the black bosom of the night that follows, bind a
glittering garment spangled with ten thousand stellar jewels--
then I can believe and rest securely in the belief that this
Christ whom I acknowledge will direct my life in a path . . .
chosen by His love,
chartered by His
wisdom,
and made victorious
by His power!
