On the topmost heights along the way, at the crossroads, she takes her stand. Proverbs 8:2, TLV
Are You at a Crossroads in Your Life? Knowing that our decision could alter our future? Unsure which way to go? Wisdom is there. She’s taken her stand on the topmost height. She’s pointing the way. Sounds simple, but for us to know which way — the best way — means following her directions. If only it were that simple, right?
Wisdom has already scoped out the best options. From her vantage point, she has seen up the road—the obstacles and paths taking us in the wrong direction.
Our Heavenly Father — who happens to be the Creator of the Universe — knows the beginning. He knows the end. It would stand to reason then, that He also knows which direction we should go. Likewise, He knows which decision we should make. A decision that could change our future.
No matter the number of choices before us, our Father’s wisdom is there for us. It isn’t always easy to hear the answer, but He will not withhold it. If we haven’t heard clearly, then wait, it will come.
Really, any decision before us is a crossroads. If we think about it, seemingly random decisions can change the course of our life.
What if my future husband had not walked into the high school’s office at the precise moment I needed my car battery jumped? It was a decision that changed both of our lives.
Trusting our Father and His love for us, seeking His wisdom and understanding is always the best choice — and the best vantage point of all.
Make me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning, for in You I trust. Show me the way I should go, for to You I lift up my soul. Psalm 143:8, TLV [emphasis mine]
May our path be sure, and our choices clear, my friends.
