There are cross roads and there are roads to a cross - both require decisions with resolution - both require a sure step, a clear head and are better approached with a clear vision of what's ahead through the lens of a clear decision, framed by a determination to follow the true compass spirit within. And at each turn it's advisable to count the cost of whatever toll the path will demand of us, while bearing our eternal destination in mind. And as that last true hope settles into a smile, we consult the map book, make our choice and walk on.

Crossroads
There are cross roads and there are roads to a cross - both require decisions with resolution - both require a sure step, a clear head and are better approached with a clear vision of what's ahead through the lens of a clear decision, framed by a determination to follow the true compass spirit within. And at each turn it's advisable to count the cost of whatever toll the path will demand of us, while bearing our eternal destination in mind. And as that last true hope settles into a smile, we consult the map book, make our choice and walk on.
God's path for us is no high wire. It's a path with choices. Jeremiah 6:16 This is what the Lord says “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls."
