Have you had your Joy Juice today? You’ll never find a “Do Not Enter” sign at
the entrance to Joy Road!
Why are there
signs on certain roads that say: "DO NOT ENTER"?
The road may be closed because of a washed out bridge or some other
obstruction that would cause us to be delayed or even injured.
Many times
along the road of life, we are determined to go our own way. God may put up a “DO NOT ENTER” or even a
“DETOUR” sign along the path, but we disregard the message. It’s when we don’t recognize these signs as
warnings that we miss out on the protection and blessing of His best plan.
We’re not
going to always understand God’s ways.
But we can always trust that He knows best and that he will not lead us
down the wrong path. He tells us in Isaiah 55:8-9:
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my
ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”
God’s knowledge and wisdom are far
greater than ours. Couple that truth
with the magnitude of His love for us and we have absolutely no reason to doubt
His direction. The only GPS that we need
is GOD’s Positioning System. He never
has to recalculate because He never makes a mistake. On the other hand, when we try to travel this
journey of life alone, we may find ourselves lost and headed in the wrong
direction more often than not.
Let’s plug into the Divine GPS and expect a blessed
trip along the Road of Joy.
