Which path?

While praying tonight, something occurred to me. I'm not sure if it was a distraction, or if God was trying to get through to me. Either way, I think it is good, and there fore, I shall share it :)

While writing this and thinking about it more, i have expanded on the occurrence quite a bit.

It occurred to me that there are many different paths to Heaven. God has chosen a path for each of us to take. If we try to take someone else's path, it doesn't work right. Not saying that others can't inspire us, I'm just saying that God has chosen a path for you, and that path is the one He wants you to take. It might be a hard path. Very often they are hard, but we should still follow them because God has it all planned out, and He knows best. After all, He Created us!

There also, are many different paths to, well, the opposite of Heaven. The good paths and bad paths often cross, because human ways are imperfect, due to original sin. Sometimes our paths intersect with other people's paths, and sometimes they run alongside them. And perhaps Sometimes we see someone who has strayed off of their path, and part of our path is to help them get back on their's!

So while we are walking on our path to Heaven, there may come a fork on the road, or maybe even several different forks. Only one of these paths is the right path to take. Sometimes it is hard to tell which path is right. So we need The Lord to guide
us.

Also, we have each been given different tools to help us, and each other, reach the final goal. God has given us these tools, or talents, in order to help us and also to help others on our paths. We each have been given these talents for a reason. Maybe you don't think you have one, but maybe you just haven't found it yet. You maybe you have and you don't realize it!

We also have certain obstacles on our paths.

For instance, one who has a talent of singing, can use that talent to spread God's word through song, and inspire others. But perhaps they may often have doubts and think that their singing isn't good enough. So then Someone comes along who is good at cheering others up, being compassionate and helpful. Now the singer is spreading God's word through song, there fore God receives Glory, and the helpful person has brought Glory to Hod by being compassionate and encouraging this person to push on. There fore, These two have helped each other, moved forward on their paths, maybe inspired some one else to push on, and therefore, God receives Glory!

Luckily, we can get back On the right path again, if we make the mistake of choosing the wrong one. But we need Him to help us.


I've been praying abit for God to tell me what He wants me to do with the life He has granted me. I am still not sure which path I am called to take. I know that He will let me know when He knows I am ready. Sometimes I get a little impatient
sometimes, and I just can't wait for Him to tell be so that I can start preparing, but I guess right now my path is to wait. Impatience is one of my obstacles I guess.
