SEEING PAST THE ROADBLOCKS!

“The instructions of the Lord are perfect, reviving the soul. The decrees of the Lord are trustworthy, making wise the simple. The commandments of the Lord are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commandments of the Lord are clear giving insight to the loving.” Psalm 19: 7-8

There are a considerable number of roadblocks in life, some being small and some being big. Many of these roadblocks make us turn around and go another direction in life. We stop in our tracks and go a different way. God has a plan for each of us. That plan in our life has been in existence since we were born. Whether we fulfill what God has for us to do is completely up to us. Some of us hear and do what he asks from day one. Others of us see the bright and shiny things of the world and take time to explore and, in doing so, get off the path and go our own way. However, with the help of the hand of God, and the willingness to listen, they are able to come back and listen to his instruction, his wisdom and his direction for their life. But then there are those who go astray and never make it back. They get involved in the world and become a part of it. They live their lives to satisfy their own needs and to look good in the sight of those in the world. The roadblocks in this life here on earth are many. We all come up against them. It is, however, how we react to these obstacles that count. It is with great desperation, that during times of anxiety and troubles, some will go back to the bible and revisit the Lord’s word. There is great value in re-reading bible verses, meditating on the word and memorizing valuable verses that will help against troubles of any kind. As we do these things our faith and trust in God becomes stronger and stronger. Every time we go to the Lord in prayer, we depend a little more on his mighty promises and begin to live our lives with Him in charge. We cannot see through the roadblocks in life without help. Our sight is short, and we see only the problems. However, our God sees things through his perspective, and because he is God, he sees the problem and the solution. As we continue to trust in him, our faith will allow us to also see the answers to our problems, by trusting in him to be true to his word. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
