#6-child-like expressions

When I asked God -
"How do I know that you are leading me down the right road?"

God said -
"Because My Child...I will never ask you to go anywhere that I cannot lead you."

- Psalm 27:11


How many times have you taken a road and not really fully known where you are going? Been there myself many times. You find yourself looking for signs to show you where to go next or how to turn around and get yourself back on the right road. Maybe it is a new location that you have never been in or around. Those are the worst. Today we have all kinds of spruced up technology designed to help us get to and from. But for the Christian, we have always had the information right at our fingertips. But the question is, do we use it? Do we rely on it? God's Word was given to us for just that reason. To be a roadmap for our lives. And when we question the things of our life, such as His leading down the right road, we have only to open His Word and search the scriptures and there we will find our answers. He promises to never take us or lead us anywhere that He himself has not already walked ahead of us and prepared the way. There will for certain be times where we cannot see what lies ahead, but we need only to cling to His Word that He is already there. There are times when this is hard to do. Our faith is strengthened even more in those times. For it is then when we learn to fully rely on HIM! Those are our times of growth. When we look back we then see it, and are stronger for it.
