I was walking back to my dorm room and I saw this in the sky. To be honest, the first thing I thought of was how high the pollution level must be today. But as I looked at it some more, I thought how cool it was that so many people were traveling in so many different directions each with their own destination in mind. Of course, then it turned into a spiritual thought, which is why I am now posting in my blog. :] God has a plan for each of us. Each of those plans lead us in different directions: some to a life of solitude, some to a life of multitude; some to a medical field, some to a law field; some to being an artist, some to being a musician; some to being a stay-at-home mom, some to traveling the world. Whatever He has planned for us, the reality is that those plans gives us hope and a future. His Word says, "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11). At some points along the way, however, we may veer off course a little. If you notice in the picture, not all of the lines are perfectly straight. However, God also gives us yet another promise: "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths" (Proverbs 3:5-6). Even if we cannot see how we will get to the end result (spending eternity in Heaven with Him), He does promise that if we trust Him regardless of what our eyes tell us, then He will straighten our paths for us. He will provide a straight-shot between us and being with Him forever. I don't know about you, but... That sounds like a promise worth trusting. :]
