It's no big deal, sometimes in life a lane change is necessary to get around a road block. Of course, I'm writing about more than just traffic. We may get stuck on a path in our Christian walk and refuse to change lanes when God wants us to change. The roadblock is there, but we just keep on hitting it and praying about it, and sitting there waiting on God, and then praying some more, and the road block just won't move. So, we send up some grumbling, and maybe mix in a bit of accusation, without looking over to that lane beside us and seeing the new path God wants us to take. Now, Jesus is the way to God, but there is plenty of room for personal change, career change, and a whole lot of other changes that do come to us now and again. We won't even talk about that single to married lane change, no, no, no, that ain't never gonna happen.
Yeah, I may end up placing that one on my shelf of dead nevers one day. Stubborn Christians, and there is such a thing, may beat on a wall in front of them for decades. All God wants is a little lane change, it ain't no big deal, but they just won't give in. Well, I think that God can out wait us, outlast us, and His will don't change. If you or I happen to be that stubborn one today, we may want to get some counsel, do some prayer, and have faith that the lane God wants us to travel in for a bit is better for us in the end. We want what is best for us from God's perfect view, so go ahead and travel in God's traffic flow.
Praise God for the new day!Bucky
