What’s our broken road? 

Life is a highway. He wants to bless our broken road. He stands ready to change us for the better. Just stop wherever we are, and raise our hands up to the Father.

Before GPS and smartphones, it used to be a lot easier to start a road trip. If life is a highway, then all of us have taken a wrong turn and lost our way at some point. Most of us have experienced life without GPS. Just sort of taking one turn after the next without much direction from God or anyone.

Stop for a moment. Look at our surroundings. Ask ourself, “Is this where I wanted to go?” Am I loving this person the way I said I would? Am I raising this family the way I dreamed? Is this the wish God has for me? Am I on the right path? 

God’s plan prevails, and He works all things for the good of those who love Him. Nothing is too broken for Him. Somehow He can take a rusty junker and rebuild a bullet-proof relationship. He can take our pain and turn it into purpose. When we lean on Him, He makes our broken roads straight. In our weakness, He is strong. God can bless it. I want to trust God with all my brokenness. 

No matter the season, no matter the events of the day, I can trust my God. He is the foundation upon which everything else is built. So, with confidence I can both rest and walk forward knowing that my foundation is sure and my God is always faithful.
