More often than not some of us head down the wrong road, sometimes turning around, sometimes taking a different side road.
Sometimes, we continue down the wrong road until it breaks us, or a new intersection appears.
When we lean on God, we can know that He is going to show us the right road to take.
It's when we think we know what's best for ourselves that we make the most mistakes. Often, we don't think and that leads us into more trouble than it's worth.
Why do so many people get addicted to drugs? Because in the beginning they 'think' they can control it. They don't know how powerful the drugs are and before they realize it, it's often already too late and they are hooked.
Sometimes we make choices thinking it's 'what's best for everyone', when in fact - it wasn't the best choice. And we feel like it's too late to turn around, go back or turn onto another path.
Sometimes the dirt road for a little while is a far better outcome than the freeway.
More often than not, the right choice is usually the harder road to travel. Many take the 'easy' way, thinking it will get them to the goal faster. When in fact it takes them further away from where they want to be.
Sometimes we do things because 'society' tells us it's the 'right thing to do', when in fact, it wasn't the right thing for us or our situation at all. We let peer pressure and people, push us into making decisions that we really didn't want to make.
'Trust your gut'.... Something tells me that the 'gut' instinct is really God, telling us which way to go. Question is, do we trust our 'gut', do we believe it's God?
Perhaps there really is a sign, showing us which way to turn. We just don't see it or believe it.
God left us the Bible, which has now been rewritten so many times, it's really hard to know which version is really the true version of 'God's Word'.
Perhaps that is why He sent us the 'Holy Ghost', to give us a true Spirit, that will lead us and guide us in the right direction. He knew back then, that the 'Word' would become confused. So He left us with a True Spirit, to guide us to the truth.
Relying on Prayer, is the best way to make daily decisions. A good conversation with God in the morning, will give you clarity to face the day.
Another prayer at the end of the day, for all the blessings you received in between. Gives you the gratitude and ability to sleep peacefully, knowing that God is watching over you.
If you're standing at a crossroad, or feel like you're headed down the wrong path, it's never to late to reach out to God and ask for His guiding hand to lead you to where He wants you to be.
He doesn't leave you on the wrong road, in fact He travels with you, every step of the way. Jesus died for everyone, not just the one's sitting in church on Sundays, or Saturdays. But for everyone.
In fact, He even went down to hell, to give those already there a chance to be redeemed.
God loves us all. Without reservation, without doubt. It's never too late to turn to Him to pull you out of your situation and back on 'track', to a healthy happy life.
Malachi 3:7 ~ Even from the days of your fathers, ye have gone away from my ordinances and have not kept them. Return unto me, and I will return unto you; sayeth the Lord of Hosts. ....
Blessed by God
