Opps that's the Wrong Way

Sometimes I like going the wrong way. Do you ever do that? Starting at the line then going clockwise on the track. It is especially fun when there are a bunch of other people there. The looks on the faces are sometimes classic. But the best was the kid in the stroller who yelled out - "Hey, you're going the wrong way."

It is a friend who will tell you when you are heading in the wrong direction. Many times that friend comes in the form of a teacher/coach. This is someone who knows the way, shows the way, instructs the way, and the corrects the way. They are invaluable in our lives.

Father God is like this teacher/coach for us. In fact, the psalmist gives him the praise for this fact. "Good and upright is the LORD; Therefore He teaches sinners in the way." Psalm 25:8. Praise the Lord that he is there to get us back on the right path! He cares so much for us that he will yell out - "Hey, you're going the wrong way."
