We have a choice. We can follow God and His ways or we can do our own thing. Have you noticed that when you do your own thing, it doesn't always turn out so good? Have you noticed that when God gives you an answer you don't like, you tell Him "let me try it my way one more time, and then if that doesn't work, I will do it your way?" I'm raising both hands right here! Yes, I have done the above, and every time I did things my way, the end result was either a disaster, OR it was not God's best. Why do we think we know more than God? He tells us to make the path of our feet level. That means we have a choice to follow Him or follow our own desires. If we follow Him our path will be level. That doesn't mean we won't have problems. We are already promised we will have problems, but if we choose His way, those problems won't shake us. When we choose to follow His ways, our paths will be level, no matter what issues of life rise in our lives.
Take Away: When you have a choice to do your own thing or follow God's ways, choose to make your path level, choose God's ways. It may be tough at first, but it is the first step to a balanced life.
