Stony Paths

We may walk along well-groomed paths for much of our lives, but there are always unexpected stones. The paths God sends us on may be rocky, steep and full of sharp obstacles. He tells us that the easy and smooth road is the one that leads to destruction and many people are on that road (Matthew 7:13).

When God leads us over stony paths, He also provides armor to help keep us safe (Ephesians 6:13-17). He provides friends and fellow travelers. He encourages us with goals, visions, hopes and dreams. He shines a bright light on the paths we are to follow. Follow the paths He sets before you and don’t forget to wear the armor He provides.
