What path are you on?

In the course of our earthly journey, there are so many paths to take while on this planet–each vying for our attention. Some are better than others. As we walk, we’ll find the lust of the flesh, lust of the eye, and the pride of life do not stop beckoning once we are saved. In fact, these temptations often appear stronger when we’re walking with the Lord.

Walking with the Lord is not a set of arbitrary rules and regulations to keep us boxed in; rather, it is a relationship tethered by a mutual love and bond fostered through the power of the Holy Spirit—our helper—and for our good. It’s a commitment to God. Out of our love for him, we walk according to his precepts.

If we seek Him first…put His way above our own way, and trust in Him as we would our dearest friend, then He will lead us on the path we’re supposed to travel. If you’re ever in doubt as to which way to go, remember, the road map is as close as your faith walk with God.

When confronted with any kind of situation where you think you’ve got it covered, remember how many times the wrong decision was made simply because we thought we knew best.

Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying ~ Romans 13:13
