Human beings do not understand their own paths as well as they think — the complex unfolding of a life is ordered by God, not by us. This is humbling and comforting together: we are not in charge, but the One who is can be fully trusted. The appropriate response is faith and dependence, not self-sufficiency.
Memory phrase: God orders my every step.
Talk about it: Why is it good that God is in charge of your path?
Prayer: God, order my steps today. I trust You with my path.
