God As Our Guide Through Life

FIRST15
About this episode

Today we continue our weeklong focus on being a child of God, by looking at how God guides us throughout our life.

All of us long for, a need a guide through this life. In this journey, there are so many twists and turns, so many unknowns, so many roads we can take, we need a good, omniscient, and omnipotent guide to help us know which way to go.

May you sense the leadership of your loving Father today as we create space to receive his guidance.

Our Scripture for today comes from Psalm 32:8-9, and today's worship is Oceans by Hillsong United.
