The Right Path

Proverbs 3:5-6 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."
What seems like the end of your present path may just be a cul de sac.  It may feel like rejection and failure, but it isn’t. You simply ran out of path on that route and God has a different direction for you to pursue at this time.
God is probably saying it's time to back up, turn around, and look for a different path to get to where He wants you to go.  As long as you keep trusting in Him and moving forward, the path ahead is going to be far better than you can imagine because eventually, through all its twists and turns, it leads to the place He wants you to be.
So if you’re currently struggling to find the right path just hang in there.  Remember, sometimes the best thing that could possibly happen is not getting what you want right now and to experience the journey. Acknowledge the Lord with all of your heart and He will put you on the right path that will lead you to the right place at the right time.
