Straight…
We are offering a new service in our salon. Now, if your hair is curly and frizzy, you can have straight hair without trashing it with chemicals or frying it with a flat iron every day.
Oh if only we could get our lives straight so easily. But we can’t lay out a few bills and walk away with a straightened out mess….even for a few months.
God never wanted all the kinks in our lives. He still doesn’t. But we insist on twisting truth, bending His standards, and wrapping ourselves around ‘stuff’.
Changing the truth of God for a lie never has changed truth. “Instead of believing what they knew was the truth about God, they deliberately chose to believe lies…”(Rom.1:25)
Taking detours instead of the straight path only causes us prolonged periods of learning.
We can wander in wilderness, twisting around and traveling in endless circles, getting nowhere….or we can get through it in a much shorter time if we just follow right behind God as He leads us straight thru.
We can’t drive around a storm of life. But we can be delivered through it. Safely. Even stronger and better.
And we will never straighten out the mess of human life. Not without Divine Intervention.
“Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin?” (Rom. 7:24)
Thank You again my Jesus…..
