Took the long way home......

I understand when you have a baby sleeping in the car why you wold want to take the long way home!  I can understand when you are out exploring and seeing new sites why you might take the long way home.  I can even understand you trying to prove a point to someone else about how this way is longer than that. What is the shortest distance between two points all of you math majors?  When God has already said he gives you this land, why on earth would you choose the long way home?

Do you know the calling God has placed on your life?  Have you been given a glimpse of your hope or future?  Why do you not run towards it but drag your feet away from it.  It happened with Jonah, the people of Isreal, and many other examples in the Bible not going the correct direction the first time.  How many more examples do we need to understand that God knows the plans he has for you yet we don't accept them?  Have you ever thought about how quick of a trip the children of Isreal could of had if they did not grumble and complain?  Have you looked at how quick of a trip you could experience if you see giants and accept God's word of victory over them?  Who or what are your giants that are causing you to not accept God's plan? 4 days or 40 years with death, it's your choice!
