Fantastic Friday #796 - Path

Path

34Give me understanding, so that I may keep your law
and obey it with all my heart.
35 Direct me in the path of your commands,
for there I find delight.
36 Turn my heart toward your statutes
and not toward selfish gain. Psalm 119:34-36

This week a friend posted a picture online of a choice between two trails that she could have traveled on, one was named Glacier Meadow Loop and the other was Pacific Crest Trail. At first glance, these two names provide a very pleasant picture in my mind of what the hike might be like. The Meadow with its green grasses it's beautiful trees and wildlife give a wonderful view of the creation that God has made. The Crest trail reminded me of walking on a Cliff next to an ocean watching the waves lap against the shoreline. Those trails are not what we usually face daily in our world. We have decisions we need to make when deciding on the right trail to take. We need to take the one that can help us find joy and hopefully lead us closer to God. So when we need help deciding between two paths, turn to the Lord and all that he has given us to guide us down the path to righteousness. God will not disappoint us and He is always there.

Have a great weekend.
