If only we knew today the things, God had us go around. The dangers he kept us from. When we thought things were moving slowly in our lives, God was actually protecting us. I've learned throughout my life that the easiest path isn't always the best one. Sometimes, it takes a little longer to get where God needs us to be. Just like the people of Israel in the Book of Exodus, when the path seems long, when you feel lonely, when you are afraid, God is with you.
So my question for you is, who are you following? Who is leading you?
