Watch Out for the Potholes

A few weeks ago, I was in South Carolina and I needed my car serviced while I was there.  However, I didn’t know how to get to the dealership. My sister was elected to show me how to get there, so we decided that she would drive her vehicle, we wouldn’t have to sit and wait for the car. Well in following her to the dealership, I noticed that we were taking the back roads which were full of potholes. (I thought Norfolk had the most potholes.) Anyway, the Father showed me a life’s lesson. My sister would jettison out when she came up on a pothole, you see she could see them before I could, because I was following her, I had the choice to follow her or run into a pothole, and damage my front end or worst.  Potholes in the natural can cause major destruction to your vehicle, front end alignment, causes the steering to be off, next thing you know you’re buying new tires; front end needs to be realigned. The Bible says in John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth, and the life.”  Jesus is our example of the way, if we follow His leading we will stop being wishy washy in our faith.  We’ll trust the Father for more. Jesus knows about our infirmities, He knows about our heart aches, and He knows about our disappointments.  Scripture continues to say in “Psa. 1:6 “the LORD knows the way of the righteous”. We could follow our own way or we can follow the way of the Lord.
