Paths
Psalm 16:11King James Version (KJV)
11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.
Sorry I haven’t been writing much. Been at the doctor. He has me on a diet, and told me to walk 10,000 steps a day. I counted my steps, I walk between 13000 and 15000 steps a day, 7 days a week, so I guess I am good there.
So the doctor has me on that PATH, as a cure for what ails me.
It was good news that I didn’t really have to walk more than I already am walking. At the end of the day my feet are really killing me. I usually go through 1 pair of tennis shoes a year. Walking is good for the heart, but bad for the feet and the shoes.
The paths I take dailly are my go to school paths, taking Winnie Jr et al to school, and my Winner Club paths on Sunday. Also I do lots of visitations. Paths do not have cement, but they eventually do turn into roads.
They start out as a line through the the fields that everyone walks. They start first by a trail blazer, leaving in his path a bunch of trampled grass. More people follow it, because no one like to be first, and then it’s a line of dirt, because the trampled grass dies and exposes the soil. Keep on walking that path, and then *SQUATTER VILLAGES* start to pop up. Eventually, the squatters get legal, and get bought out by people with some money who buys houses, and gets electricity installed. STILL PATHS though. Eventually those paths turn into paved streets. In any other country those paved streets will eventually have names. Here addresses are just ‘take the path 2 hundred yards east, black door at the entrance to the hill where the bald kid used to live”.. stuff like that, no joke..
GOTTA LOVE NICARAGUA.
Scary part is Google Maps, and WAZE recognizes those kind of addresses.
GOD LOVES PATHS. He uses them in a lot of illustrations. There are GOBS of path quotes in the Bible.
Once you start the path it easy to walk along everyone follows it with out thinking. We, like electricity, follow the path of least resistance. When you walk along the path your mind goes blank.
Paths aren’t always good. YOU really have no idea where you are. Zero situational awarenes. It’s like driving with a GPS telling you every where you turn, you are so busy looking at the GPS that you aren’t looking for oncoming traffic. Paths are where the enemy set booby traps. Also, people ambush you on paths. Paths can lull you into a false sense of security, because every one else is going in the same direction.
One ‘path quote’ that isn’t in the Bible that is true, ALL PATHS LEAD TO GOD. Which is true a degree. They ALL lead to God, but only ONE PATH leads to a POSITIVE REPLY FROM GOD. The rest of the paths lead to God as well, but those that take those paths I don’t think are going to be very happy with what God has to tell them.
Matthew 7:14King James Version (KJV)
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
God bless you,
My God guide us all on that straight and Narrow path.
love you all
