For your ways are in full view of the Lord , and he examines all your paths. Proverbs 5:21 NIV
We know that God sees through any face we put on for others. He sees our heart and knows our true intentions. Nothing can be hidden.
I'm focused on the part about where he examines all your paths. There are many paths your life can take, and does. Faced with choices about which way to go, which job to take, which house to buy (or rent), to get married or stay single, a person could go crazy trying to figure out which way to go. I mean it's not like God writes it out in the sky (but wouldn't that be cool?). So how do we know which way God wants us to go? What if there are two doors, or four or ten? If you choose the wrong one is it like a game show and you walk away with the consolation prize?
I don't know the answer which is why I'm asking the universe. Maybe we will never know. Maybe we are supposed to use our brains and figure it out on our own. All I know is when faced with a choice if you don't make one, life makes it for you and then all you have is a token called missed opportunity.
God knows and thankfully he's also forgiving and gracious.
