The Ancient Way

Aren't in's and out's an interesting lot? Everything from baseball cards (the millions we were once worth) to polyester (yesterday's 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 interest everyone, but it should be especially desirable to Believers.  The way-of-the-Lord in today's culture is one not often traveled. Each of us face intersections of what is "in" and what is "right" every day; we make choices but do we choose the Ancient Path the Prophet Jeremiah spoke of? "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)  Especially sad, many Believers do not choose what is "good" but rather what is expedient and fashionable.  Genuine Christianity, however, takes a radical departure from the "way that seems right" (Proverbs 14:12), and chooses the [too often] less-traveled path to Godliness and the promise of rest! Will you travel the ancient path today?
