Along the The Path of Life
You have made known to me the path of life;
you will fill me with joy in your presence,
with eternal pleasures at your right hand.
Psalm 16:11 (NIV)
Have you ever considered what the path of your life might look like? Perhaps your life is now filled with family and friends who love you and all your material needs are satisfied. In that case, maybe you would describe your path of life right now as being in a garden filled with a vast array of fragrant flowers and many trees hanging low with ripe, luscious fruits. Or possibly your current life seems dry and barren, like in a hot desert, or maybe more like walking above the tree line on a cold, snowy mountaintop. Where ever you are right now, chances are good that you’ve been in better, or worse, places before. And you will probably be in better or worse places in the future. The good news is that you never have to spend a moment of time in any of those places alone! If God is your commander and chief, then just as He promised Joshua, His words are true for you today as well; “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9 (NIV).
