Hebrews 12:12-14 (CEB) So strengthen your drooping hands and weak
knees! Make straight paths for your feet
so that if any part is lame, it will be healed rather than injured more
seriously. Pursue the goal of peace
along with everyone—and holiness as well, because no one will see the Lord
without it.
Someone posted a picture on Facebook this morning of train
tracks with a quote about God making our paths straight. I thought about the tracks that run through
Hapeville. When a train gets on the
track it doesn’t have the option to wander around. It can’t easily choose an alternate route. I’m
not sure I’d like to be a train. I like
to vary my routes when I walk and run. Yet in my Christian walk, I appreciate a
straight path. I want the assurance of
being able to live in a right manner.
There is much in the Bible that tells us how to lay straight
tracks. Even trains get in wrecks
sometimes and / or get derailed. It’s
the same for us but for the most part, travelling the straight tracks is safer
than the crooked highways.
Dear Lord, we ask that you go before us and help make our
paths straight. Please keep us safe and show us the way to living in a manner
that is pleasing to you and to ourselves.
In Christ’s name we pray. Amen.
Blessings,
Paige
