The Road Behind Me

The miles I've traveled have been many. Some of them, flew by as the scenery was so lovely, majestic even. My eyes at many times could hardly take in the vast beauty of it all. Life was good, the traveling was easy, almost effortless. I seemed to easily get from one destination to the next without feeling exhausted or spent. Days were smooth like velvet, sleep came easy and dreams were sweet when I traveled those roads.

And then, there have been other roads I have traveled. Some of these roads left my shoes worn, my feet calloused and my body weary. There were trecherous hills along the way, some of which I barely was able to ascend. Often at a crossroads, I wasn't sure which road to take. My canteen of water was empty, my food supply exhausted and my shoes of no more use to me. Sometimes, I even got lost along the way and confusion and fear gripped my heart. Weary, I would fall to the ground and waver over giving up or continuing on the road I was on. Decisions were difficult, even thinking through things could be a struggle. Confusion seemed to be my best friend.

I have traveled far on THE ROAD BEHIND ME. Although many of the roads I have walked have not led me to the place I REALLY wanted to be, I am so grateful to my God that the road I walk on now is a road I shall never veer off of.

THE ROAD BEHIND ME is exactly that.....

It's The road BEHIND me! I am no longer condemned to travel down a road that I know will bring destruction and ruin. HALLELUJAH! I will never have to come to a crossroad again and NOT know what to do. NOW, I KNOW what to do and that is a pretty
simple thing to know...

SIMPLY FOLLOW CHRIST! I will keep my spiritual blinders on so that the roads that could draw me away from being on the Road to Calvary, cannot be seen by me, only THE ROAD ahead of me.

Thank you God for THE ROAD BEHIND ME for it has led me TO THE ROAD TO CALVARY! I have learned much from my travels. Thank you for sustaining me with your love and guidance.
