Jeremiah 6:16 Thus says the Lord:
Stand at the crossroads, and look,
and ask for the ancient paths,
where the good way lies; and walk in it,
and find rest for your souls.
But they said, ‘We will not walk in it.’
We are offered the path of life. We are offered the path that we need to walk in God's way. We know what the way looks like. We may quibble about the specifics, but we basically know what is the way of life that God requires of us. It's like a path that's been laid out before us and we stand at the crossroads ready to take the first step.
And most of us turn and take another path. You may call it the path of least resistance. You may call is the path of comfort and wealth. You may call it the path of social pressure. Whatever you call it, we know it's not God's path. And yet we turn and walk.
The brilliant thing about God though is that there is always another path for us. God's path is always open to us. So take the step with me today.
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
