It Seems Right!

What book do I turn to for answers to the difficult questions in my life? A friend of mine believes that everyone's life reflects the beliefs expressed in a book. Increasingly people I know are turning inside themselves for those answers — an "autobiography". Their answers come from personal experience, situations and desires.

What I have come to believe is that I cannot always trust myself for truth. Sometimes what I think is right in my own eyes can be filled with personal rationalization.

There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. (Proverbs 14:12 NIV) 

This is the essence of moral relativism that can woo me away from God — dangerous stuff.

When seeking solutions to difficult life questions, I need to mine the rich depth of godly wisdom from Jesus and His Word rather than the shallowness of my own thoughts. Will you join me?
