All Roads Lead to God - Just Travel With Him As Pilot

Every Road Leads to God - Our GPS is just put on Scenic Route Sometimes


I have sat down several times with my computer just contemplating (big word eh?) on what to write about. There are so many things happening to so many people in our lives that I want to journal about each journey, but that would take days into weeks, into years...you get the picture. But what I have been thinking about the most, is each of us has to travel our own road, and each road will have it's hills, curves, potholes, smooth straight-aways, and rocky gravel. But the end will always lead to God because of our free will and choices. It doesn't mean everyone will choose Him, in fact, some will deny Him, some will ignore Him, some will deny He even exists, but in the end, we all will face the end of the road, our own mortality, and then come face to face with our Lord and our final destination. It's how we are traveling that matters and if we choose the correct road.

Many people I dearly love are going through such rough times. I read a dear friend's blog who is traveling a road of breast cancer while praising the Lord for her walk, a young teen girl, not even with her license yet has been traveling a road filled with pot holes and just learned yesterday her teen brother has taken his own life, she sits with the other youth supporting her this evening, praying for her. Another friend living in another state battles with a multitude of cancer riddling her body while her main concern is how her husband and daughter are traveling their road, another dear friend loses her beloved nephew of only 18 in a motorcycle accident and she watches as her brother tries to gather the tools to put together a way to navigate the new map of his life. 

What is our role in all the highway and bi ways of others traveling beside us. I believe that the biggest support we can have for anyone going through anything is as our youth pastor said tonight, "Just show up" you don't have to say a word, just be there.  Be there with prayer, with a hug, with food, with love, but be there. 

Please be in prayer for the many people in my life that are facing such challenges, I could name them, but God knows who they are, I just ask for their salvation, for peace for them and their families and miraculous healing if that is His will. Most of all I ask that you pray that in every instant that His glory shines through.
