Something from Sarah Young's "Jesus Calling: Enjoying Pease in His Presence" for today, July 14; something special for you, maybe you as well:
"KEEP WALKING with Me along the path I have chosen for you.
Your desire to live close to Me is a delight to My heart.
I could instantly grant you the spiritual riches you desire, but that is not My way for you.
Together we will forge a pathway up the high mountain.
The journey is arduous at times, and you are weak.
Someday you will dance light-footed on the high peaks,
but for now, your walk is often plodding and heavy.
All I require of you is to take the next step, clinging to My hand for strength and direction.
Though the path is difficult and the scenery is dull at the moment,
there are sparkling surprises just around the bend.
Stay on the path I have selected for you.
It is truly the path of Life."

Young's Bible verses: Psalms 16:11 & 37:23-24.
