Deceptive Hearts or Directed Steps?


Proverbs 16:4, 6, 9 
4 The Lord has made all for Himself, Yes, even the wicked for the day of doom.  6 In mercy and truth Atonement is provided for iniquity; And by the fear of the Lord one departs from evil.  9 A man's heart plans his way, But the Lord directs his steps.

God has chosen us and called us out who are His, but also has chosen those who are not in order to show His greatness and sovereignty.  We must then choose to do right and not evil to please Him, knowing Jesus atoned for our sin by taking our due death penalty - this is fear of God and loving thankfulness.  Above all, we are responsible for our choices which we must make, yet also knowing He guides and sets the path for us.  Walking by faith!
