Choice Right And Wrong Road Path Decision

Unsure of Where You Are Headed

“So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.” Deuteronomy 31:6 (NLT)

The last few years, I have been reminded of Jacob’s favorite bible verse, Deuteronomy 31:6, on a daily basis. Unsure of where we were headed, we stayed faithful knowing that God had a plan. There have been countless mistakes made with hard lessons learned. The bible is full of examples of people experiencing the worst of times, but God never left them. I knew God wasn’t going to start with my family.

“Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” Hebrews 11:1 (ESV)

“So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you!” Hebrews 10:35 (NLT)

Unsure of where you are headed? I learned this little tip very quickly. My job is to trust. My job is to have faith. I know life is tough. The punches are felt daily. John 16:33 says, “I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”

It definitely hasn’t been easy. It surely hasn’t been as quickly as we wanted. But one thing is for certain. God is always steering, navigating, detouring, and heading us in the right direction. I have witnessed God putting Jacob’s life back together and building him into a better, stronger young man. He is on the verge of moving out, going to college, and making other plans. That’s where he’s headed.
