The Way

The Way we should begin our day.
The Way we should end our day.
The Way we should live our lives.
In Acts 19 we are told that people were starting to call Christianity 'The Way'.

I like it!
The Way to love.
The Way to joy.
The Way to find purpose, our path, the direction we should go.
The Way to what we're all looking for.

Unfortunately, we can be easily distracted and lose our way.  Do you ever get distracted? Probably a better question is - when was the last time you got distracted and lost your way?

Have you found yourself thinking that 'stuff' will make you happy?  And you became obsessed with 'more'?  I have.

Or we start thinking that a person will make us happy - a new boyfriend because the current one doesn't know how to make us happy, a new wife because the current one isn't making us happy, a new church because the pastor in our current one isn't making us happy.

We can get lost in thinking our job or career should be making us happy so we spend too much time there trying to be successful and 'happy'.  Maybe one more raise or promotion will do it?

It's easy to get lost in all the ways we see others searching for happiness.  I made a bunch of mistakes myself going down the wrong roads, looking in all the wrong places but never finding 'The Way".

Until I focused on my personal relationship with God.

Jesus replied, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind." Matthew 22:37

It's The Way.
