Which Path?

It's becoming clearer and clearer for many of you doing the 60/60 - for those of you sincerely seeking to follow God. The distinction between light and dark is no longer gray - they quit running together as we get nearer to God.

This morning I was reading in Proverbs 4 and these verses jumped out:

"Do not set foot on the path of the wicked
or walk in the way of evil men.
Avoid it, do not travel on it;
turn from it and go on your way." (Proverbs 4:14-15)

What path do we choose? Man, it's so easy and seductive -- and accepted -- to just walk a few feet on what looks like a harmless trail.

And yet as we experience the freedom and power of living in the presence of God, nothing else satisfies . . . Just a few verses down in Proverbs Solomon writes about the wisdom of God:

"Pay attention, my child, to what I say. Listen carefully. Don't lose sight of my words. Let them penetrate deep within your heart, for they bring life and radiant health to anyone who discovers their meaning.
Above all else, guard your heart, for it affects everything you do." (Proverbs 4:20-23)
