May 16, Evening
I will bless the Lord, who hath given me counsel.
[Psa.16:7]
His name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor. ■ Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom: I am understanding, I have strength. ■ Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. ■ Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.
[Isa.9:6 | Prov.8:14 | Psa.119:105 | Prov.3:5,6]
O Lord, I know that the way of man is not in himself: it is not in man that walketh to direct his steps. ■ Thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. ■ Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be established. ■ He knoweth the way that I take. ■ Man's goings are of the Lord: how can a man then understand his own way?
[Jer.10:23 | Isa.30:21 | Prov.16:3 | Job.23:10 | Prov.20:24]
Thou shalt guide me with thy counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. ■ This God is our God for ever and ever: he will be our guide even unto death.
[Psa.73:24 | Psa.48:14]
