Our life is incomplete if God is not in it. Nothing good comes from us except the Holy Spirit that lives within us. Our flesh desires the things of this world and often pride takes hold and directs how we act. If we hold close to God’s word and humble ourselves before him we will learn His will for our life.
“He guides the humble in what is right and teaches them his way. All the ways of the Lord are loving and faithful for those who keep the demand of his covenant.” Psalm 25:9
