The path we travel has both easy and hard days. We want the easy days and avoid the hard ones
when we can. We make choices and
sometimes the consequences of our choices are a hard path.
It is true that we do not wish to walk the hard path. It is real that the hard path is painful and
trying. Still, there are times when the
only way out is through. There are circumstances
where taking the hard path is the only way home. It is the only way out of the darkness.
This does not mean that we are noble or good. It means that we do what we must to navigate
the way to that which is good. We avoid
the hard path because it will hurt. So
often, the hard path sounds like a platitude; “just trust the Lord,” they
say. It is not a lie just because it
sounds like placation. It is part of
what makes the path hard. It is what
pushes us toward the path of least resistance.
What I wish to explore is how we face a hard path and choose
it. I want to always choose what is right
and good even if it is difficult. My
desire is to follow the path the Christ has for me even when it is not where I
wish to go or when it is filled with pain.
I do not wish the pain of truths I dislike or consequences I have earned
but if that is where Christ leads that is where I must follow.
I would value your company as I explore this, Dear
Reader. It seems that when we travel together
it is easier to follow the path I must because I want to do what is best for
both of us. Mostly, I want to follow any
path necessary to deepen my faith in and love for Jesus. I wish to do whatever is necessary to love
the Father with all that I am. In this, I
ask you to join me. We are better
together.
Wishing you joy in the journey,

Mat 13:52 So Jesus said to them, "That is why every
writer who has become a disciple of Christ’s rule of the universe is like a
homeowner. He liberally hands out new and old things from his great treasure
store.”

Every human story is part of the great story that leads
to the Father getting everything back to Good.
