Stand At The Crossroads And ...

STAND AT THE CROSSROADS AND Look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it.  In order to walk in the good way, you need to be alert:  praying in the Spirit in all occasions.  With My Spirit's help you can recognize a crossroads when you come upon it, instead of rushing past the choice-point without even noticing.  If you are unsure which way to go, pause and wait with Me.  Stay in communication with Me while you're standing and looking.  Trust Me to show you the way forward in My timing.

If you follow these instructions, you will not only walk in the good way; you will also find rest for your soul.  I know how weary you are and how desperately you need soul-rest.  Even when your body is still, your thoughts tend to go hither and beyond.  If you want My help in taming those thoughts, bring them to Me.  I already know what you're thinking, so you have nothing to hide.  You need to wait in My Presence, giving Me time to help you think My thoughts.  Though you may feel as if you're wasting time, you are actually doing the opposite.  Your steps will be fewer but you will accomplish much more, for you will be staying close to Me - the Way, the Truth, and the Life.  No matter how strenuous your journey, you can find soul-rest in My company.
