If you look at this picture, we can all honestly say that our path along
the road of life has never been perfectly straight.
In fact the road is a bit wavy, and the question is WHY.
We have all had the experience of driving when something to the
left or right side of the road catches our eye,
and once we take our eyes off of looking forward,
the car out drifts out of the lane and we start weaving.
This is a great analogy of what often happens in life.
If we were to keep our eyes on God and follow His direction we
would always stay in the centerline of the road,
but as soon as we allow ourselves to get distracted by things
that catch our attention that are outside of God’s truth,
we start weaving and the road is made crooked.
Look...nobody is perfect and we all have and will make mistakes,
but as today’s scripture admonishes us, keep your
eyes on God and follow His precepts. When you do, you’ll
never go in the wrong direction and will safely stay on your road
through this life.
