Ancient Path

Aren't in's and out's an interesting lot? Everything from baseball cards (oh, the millions we were once worth) to polyester (that wardrobe long since donated to charity), we find our "in's" have long been "out."

The Ancient Way is never "out." Off-the-beaten path doesn't seem to interest many people today, but it should be the most desired path for Believers. There’s quite the caravan going the world’s way, and well-worn is that path! Every day we face intersections of right and wrong, choosing the way in which we will go. The Prophet Jeremiah wrote, "Stop at the cross-roads; look for the ancient paths; ask, 'Where is the way that leads to what is good?' Then take that way, and you will find rest for yourselves." (Jeremiah 6:16) Sadly, many Believers don’t choose the way of good, but rather what is expedient and fashionable. Genuine Christianity, however, takes a determined and often radical departure from the "way that seems right unto man" (Proverbs 14:12). God’s Way may be the less-traveled path but it is The Route to life and rest! Will you travel the ancient path today?
