He Directs Our Path
During my grandson Caleb’s spring break, we decided to visit a different museum each day for three days. At the first museum, there was a special exhibit featuring challenging mazes and puzzles. I’ll admit, I’m not great at navigating mazes, but we were eager to give it a try.
The first maze was designed for younger kids, and I enjoyed it. Because the barriers were low, I could easily look over them and quickly plan my way out. Seeing the path clearly felt empowering.
Encouraged by our success, Caleb and I decided to tackle one of the more difficult mazes next. This one had tall barriers, blocking my view and making it impossible to plot a straight path. We wandered through dead ends, u-turns, and loops. Somehow, we eventually found our way out. Caleb was eager to try again, but I hesitated. Before I knew it, we were back inside. Caleb led the way, but as we hit more dead ends, I saw the panic creeping in. I took over, not knowing the right path myself, and we continued to wander blindly, two lost souls navigating the unknown.
Then, suddenly, we spotted an exit, not the official one, but an escape route for those who are lost. It reminded me of God’s guidance in life. Just like in the maze, we can’t always see the way clearly. When we call out to God for direction, He promises, “I will help you.” The path might not be traditional or expected, but if we trust Him, He will lead us out of confusion and into safety.
Thank You, God!
