“There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Proverbs 16:25
It is our very nature to justify ourselves and think that our choices in life are good and right, but instead of leading to life, they lead to death and condemnation. We ought to examine our ways in the light of God’s Word, repent of the sin and evil in our lives, and look to God for mercy in Jesus Christ’s atoning sacrifice for the sins of the world.
Your Word, O Lord, is good and right. It reveals my sin but shows me the way of forgiveness and life through faith in Jesus Christ, my Savior. Grant that I hear and heed Your Word. Amen.
[Scripture is quoted from the King James Version of the Bible.]
