The Path

     "THE PATH"

                      

All my life I’ve loved paths. I used to make paths through the woods behind my house when I was Young.. My brother and I used to make go-Cart paths.  I used to have a path that wound around through the woods and had rabbit hallows set through the trail to try to catch rabbits. As I grew older ,my paths  now include GPS coordinates and computer layouts. But I still have my paths through my yard covered in White Stone. There are also paths in life that we determine which one we are going to follow.

  In Proverbs 4:14 we find” Do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not walk in the way of the evil. “ The wicked path is one path we may choose to follow. Wicked is described as being Evil or morally wrong, dreadful. When I think of wicked I think of darkness. When I am in the dark in my boat I like to have my pole light on to see. If Im in the woods I like to use a flashlight to see my path. If you read Gods word David tells us in Psalms 119:105  Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.

The second path we could choose would be the path to “righteousness”. Proverbs 4:18 proclaims  But the path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, which shines brighter and brighter until full day.  Rightousness is explained as Morally right up-right or justifiable.

God includes paths in his very own Prayer in Psalms 23:3

He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake

What path are you on? If there is a fork in the path what light source will you use to choose the right path? Just remember if your on the wrong path it’s not too late to switch to the right one!
