Go stand at the crossroads and look around. Ask for directions to the old road, the tried-and-true road. Then take it. Discover the right route for your souls. Jeremiah 6:16People today are always looking for what is new and different. They want to find their own way. The old ways are outdated and boring. They want to blaze a new trail.
But that isn't always the best way. In fact, it often isn't. When it comes to following the Lord, the only route that will "work" is the one he laid out for us since the beginning of time.
So, if you want to continue to walk in fellowship with God, find the path, well-worn by the saints ahead of you. Then take it.
Be sure to stop by Christy's blog for more visual inspiration from scripture.
