Psalm 37:23-24 The steps of the godly are directed by the Lord. He delights in every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will not fall, for the Lord holds them by the hand.

It is very strange to think that someone, other than ourselves, is directing our steps. I think it is even more strange for us Christians to accept that God is directing our steps; that He is there in what we are doing now. Well, unless of course we are doing things that are clearly not from God; but I think that is where we get hung up. Too many of us say that our jobs and 'mundane' lives are not good enough for God; but in the same breath we say that our lives are good because they are stable. Though I clearly think that God is calling us to something different, I also believe that He is not necessarily calling us out of our lives. God asks us to be different. Here on this earth, in this job, at this time, in every detail of our lives we must follow Him, with His strength. He knows we will stumble. He knows we are broken people; but He is there to save us, again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again, and again....
