Stop! One way!

 
Signs, signs everywhere a sign. Whether we agree with them or not they are there for a reason and purpose. When you see a sign that says, "One way or stop" you better pay attention. 

God puts out signs like these and often we ignore or violate them like we do the regular sign. He tells us in His word Jesus is the only way into Heaven and He means just that. Unfortunately we try to turn a one way into many ways and it doesn't work. Imagine the confusion on the road if we were allowed to enter any way we so choose. At first you may think it was fun to do it that way but once you saw the mess it created the fun of it would suddenly disappear.

If God says Jesus is the Way then so be it. One way. One road. Jesus is that path. The Bible is our road map to find that "One Way" not the road of "Many ways." We don't get to bend the rules to make our trip shorter and do what we consider to be "more fun."

God is the head of this road department and it would do us well to pay attention to the signs set forth for us to obey.

About Me

My photo
I reside in Oregon, with my husband of 32 years. I'm a mother of one and grandmother of six, counting my two newly adopted grandsons. I teach a women’s Bible Study. In June of 2007 God asked me to take with me the things I had learned in my own Christian walk to help those traveling down similar roads. A journey that started with a head injury in Jr. High School and the epilepsy it was to create later for 7 long years. One day I was given the key to my cure. In order to have the surgery to cure the 10% of my seizures that were truly epileptic I was told I had to get rid of first the 90% that were stress caused. For the next five years I took my stress issues to the Lord, leaning and relying on Him and His word as well as catchy sayings of others to see me through. As peace, obedience to God and giving up bad habits replaced worry, stubbornness and disobedience my stress seizures began to disappear. Finally I qualified for the surgery. The end result after 20 years has been being seizure free and pill free all those years. Praise the Lord. God is the cure. I can be contacted at karijo_fluffy@yahoo.com.
