Praise His Name: GUIDE
\nFor this is God, Our God forever and ever, He will be our Guide, even to death.<\/em>\u00a0 Psalm 48:14 NKJV<\/p>\n

Today’s Thought:
\nWe need not fear if God is our Guide. Things in this world may sometimes get scary and often we may not be sure which way we should go, but we have a Guide who is always with us to show us where to walk. The path we are on may be narrow, but He will lead the way, and if we follow Him, He will never lead us astray or cause our foot to stumble. Today let’s pause to praise Him as our Guide and commit to following Him daily wherever He leads.<\/p>\n

The LORD will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength. You will be like a well-watered garden, like an ever-flowing spring.<\/em> Isaiah 58:11 [NLT]<\/p>\n

Today’s Praise Pause:
\nDear God, I pause to praise You, as my Guide. The One who is with me continually providing and protecting, directing me to truth and leading me to peaceful paths. Each day, I thank You that You will guide me to Your way and will. I pause to praise You right now for being my Guide, the One who is always at my side. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.<\/p>\n
