Ever meet people who who think that a smooth path is proof positive that they are doing God’s will?
Careful study of the Bible shows that people who obey God run into trouble. Poor Joseph was sold into slavery and sent to prison. Paul was harassed, beaten and jailed.
Christ had the cross.
Philippians 2:8 (ESV)
. . . he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross.
True…but I’m starting to think I’ve had something more than a hundred miles of bad road.
Bad road walked with a good dog, Andrew. It’s not all bad.
