Good morning to everyone. Grace and Peace be with you.
In all our lives, we have choices to make on which road we will travel. Will we drive down the gravel road, potentially causing chipped paint damage to our car? Will we drive down the wet dirt road and potentially get stuck? Will we maintain and only drive on paved roads where it is safe and less likely to encounter inconvenient delays or detours?
While on these roads, will we conduct ourselves recklessly and drive at full throttle, or will we adhere to the speed limits? As we are navigating on these roads, will we be attentive for sudden changes in the conditions, or will we just drive aimlessly and hope for the best?
Driving our car is much like walking our walk with Jesus. There are smooth roads (easy times), dirt roads (harder times), and gravel roads(bumpy times). There are obstacles both anticipated and unforeseen (trials). There are rules for safety (the ten commandments). All of which are choices left to us; however, sometimes the choice is taken from us, or it feels like it was, when we are on a nice afternoon drive on a smooth country road, and all of a sudden the path changes to gravel or dirt. Perhaps a deer jumps or runs across our path. There is a flat tire. Or we simply run out of gas.
In all those scenarios, there is always one constant … Faith. In all our travels, we have faith that we will end up where we were headed in the first place. We have faith that we will arrive safely, regardless of our choices. We have faith that we will have the wisdom to navigate any and all obstacles. We have faith that he will not steer us down the wrong road. Faith. It is a powerful resource.
Today, I ask that you check your faith fuel level. Are you topped off and ready for anything? Have you been driving for a while but are still pretty steady? Are you running on fumes, and you need a refuel? Where is your faith gauge sitting today?
If you are struggling and need a boost or a refill, go to Him. In His presence, things become very clear, and your tank is filled in abundance. The bumpy roads no longer seem to bother you, and obstacles no longer seem to matter. When your faith tank is full, every road you travel seems like a paved one.
Be blessed.
**Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. – Isaiah 40:30-31
