Avoid That Slip
Then you will walk safely in your way, and your foot will not stumble.
~ Proverbs 3:23
"If we follow the ways of wisdom and holiness, we shall be preserved in them. There is a way for every man, and if we devoutly walk therein in the fear of God, He will preserve us from evil. We may not travel luxuriously, but we shall walk safely.
Our greatest danger lies in ourselves: our feeble foot is sadly apt to stumble. Let us ask for more moral strength, that our tendency to slip may be overcome. Some stumble because they do not see the stone in the way: divine grace enables us to perceive and trust in Him who upholds His chosen.
Oh, for grace to walk this day without a single stumble! Our cry should be that we may not make the smallest slip with our feet, but may at the last adore Him who is able to keep us from stumbling."

PLEASE PRAY THIS PRAYER WITH ME THIS MORNING. OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN, HALLOWED BE THY NAME. THY KINGDOM COME, THY WILL BE DONE ON EARTH, AS IT IS IN HEAVEN. GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD. FORGIVE US OF ALL OUR SINS, OUR DEBTS, AND OUR TRESPASSES AGAINST YOU AND MAN; AS WE FORGIVE THOSE WHO ARE INDEBTED TO US, AND THOSE WHO HAVE TRESPASSED AGAINST US.
