Facing A Dead End

Proverbs 4:20-22 "My son, attend to my words; incline thine ear unto my sayings. Let them not depart from thine eyes; keep them in the midst of thine heart. For they are life unto those that find them, and health to all their flesh.

You may be facing a dead end right now that is financial, emotional, relational, or spiritual, but if you will trust God and keep on moving in faith, even when you don’t see a way, he will make a way. It will become more understandable as you head down the path he sets before you, but understanding is not a requirement for you to start down the path.

Proverbs 4:18 says, “But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” One day you will stand in the full light of eternity and view the big picture. You’ll see God’s purpose behind the path he specifically chose for you. 

In the meantime, just trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; but in all your ways  cknowledge Him, and He will direct your path.”

Be patient because God knows what he’s doing. God really knows what is best for you because He sees the end result not just your beginning. You can’t. All those problems, heartaches, difficulties, delays, and all the things that make you ask “why” will one day be clear in the light of God’s love. But for now, learn to trust God.

Proverbs 4:26, 27 "Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established.Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: remove thy foot from evil.
