Scripture
Romans 12:1-2
Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Observation

Application
Personally, I think going ice fishing takes a special kind of crazy…LOL! True fishermen do not just wake up and hit the ice. They have to get the right equipment and find and test the right spot. They make sure the ice is strong enough, the water under is deep enough and the right temperature. They take their time and make sure everything is just right. When we take the time to follow God and read, pray, and study we prep ourselves. Then, we will be able to know exactly what it is God wants us to do when we ask for direction. We get His approval and we know the ice will be safe!
Prayer
Lord, thank you for making sure my steps are safe. I know if I look to you, you will always navigate my icy spots. ~Amen
