My soul is consumed with longing for You. For Your direction & will; Your guidance & strength. Your word says,
“Whether you turn to right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you saying, ‘This is the way, walk in it.’” Isaiah 30:21
Make this real in my life. Silence the distractions of my human mind and overwhelm me with the assurance that I am following after You. Remove fear from my life because I know fear does not come from You. For You are love and perfect love casts out all fear. For where there is love there is trust and where there is trust there is obedience. This is my cry: that I would be confident in Your love and so in tune with Your spirit that I may follow, without question, Your good and perfect will.

Stephanie,
Sorry to be so late in responding to this - boot camp has kept me busy! I have loved this verse for so long. God showed it to me over 15 years ago when a friend of mine had cancer. We were praying about her next plan of treatment and she just didn't know what to do. We meditated on this scripture and decided that sometimes we have to take a step, THEN we will hear God's voice. I am sometimes so paralyzed by not being exactly sure what I am supposed to do that I don't do anything. I think sometimes God calls us to step out in faith and then we will hear His voice, the voice behind us. Maybe this isn't the correct interpretation for this verse, but God has certainly used it in my life.
Love you! Aunt Robin
