Journeying with Christ~

Jeremiah 29:11 says, "For I know the plans I have for you...plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future."  I think this verse shows all of us that as long as we are journeying with God, the road ahead of us, although maybe shaky, will be beneficial.  However, every road is different.  Some roads will diverge, and God will expect us to choose which is right, based on our biblical knowledge, and love for Christ.  Others will twist and turn and try to throw us in a frenzy of disbelief and unfaithfulness. However, as this verse clearly portrays, our journey here on Earth will be prosperous, each hurdle NOT meant to harm us, but to help us thrive in a society where the name "Jesus Christ" is slowly melting away as wickedness begins gripping people's hearts.  As we journey with God, we must realize that every thing that happens to us is only benefitting out future, and not just our earthly future, but our eternal future.
