Seek Him and He shall show


Seek His will in all you do, and He will show you which path to take. [Proverbs 3:6]

Let not mercy and truth forsake you; God's mercy in promising, and His truth in performing:
live up to them, keep up your interest in them, and take the comfort of them. 
We must trust in the Lord with all our hearts,
believing He is able and wise to do what is best.
Those who know themselves, find their own understandings a broken reed, which,
if they lean upon, will fail.
Do not design any thing but what is lawful, and beg God to direct you in every case,
though it may seem quite plain.
In all our ways that prove pleasant, in which we gain our point,
we must acknowledge God with thankfulness.
In all our ways that prove uncomfortable, and that are hedged up with thorns,
we must acknowledge him with submission.
It is promised, He shall direct your paths;
so that your way shall be safe and good, and happy at last.
[Taken from Mathew's commentary]
