“So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! 36 Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.” V 35-36 (NLT)
The Bible gives us a clear choice between two life directions. Because life often forks of in two directions, you must take the higher road, even though it looks more difficult and treacherous. The road gets steep in places. The climb takes a toll on your energy. It gets lonely. Not many many on it, but more than you imagined, and some because of your example. Sometimes itt gets slippery because the devil blows ice on the narrow passages. Despite its dangers, the higher road is bound for the peak, and you’ll make it – God has a lifeline around you. When you are tempted to falter in your faith or turn back from following Christ, keep focused on what he has done for you and what he offers in the Future . . . then keep climbing.
Today, which road will you choose to go down? Lets take the high road even if it may seem more difficult!
