Every morning on my way to church I always have a number of options on what path I can take to church. I always try to remember to ask God what path He wants me to take. "do I go straight lord, or do I turn left?" Sometimes He will tell me to take a different path, even when I forget to ask. I've known about 4 or 5 different ways I can go to church each morning. Well, at several different 4-way intersections I can go straight or turn left. For the past few weeks I've had this voice in my head saying, "turn right." I always ignore it because that is silly and makes no sense. I cant' get to church by turning right, at least not in decent time.
Friday, it was a beautiful morning, and I knew that if I took the 'turn left' option I would be privileged to see some spectacular views of God's creation. Once again that urge came, turn right. This time it was a little stronger. I protested in saying, "I don't want to miss such beautiful views this morning, they won't last for ever." But with the stronger prompting I turned right, saying "I don't know where this road leads, but I'm trusting you for direction God." And He gave me directions, "go straight here...take the next left....turn right...." etc... just one road at a time. Yes it took a lot longer, but I have to say, 'God, you know what you are doing. The views and sights of His nature on that morning in that new area, were breathtaking. It was so gorgeous. And I would of never seen it had I not listened to God. He told me that this is How I am suppose to trust Him.
It was well worth the extra time.
