Where are you going?

Where are you going?
Back in the 70's there was a song which asked the question, "Do you know, where you're going to?"

It is a good question. Much of society has no idea of where they are headed, and as a result their life is full of confusion. (Do you sometimes wonder why roads often wind around so much, instead of going straight? The roads are built where they are, because they follow the old dirt roads. The dirt roads followed tracks made through the meadows, by carts. The cart tracks followed the trails made by cattle as they meandered across the scenery. And the cattle followed a cow which had no idea of where she was going!)

You have to know where you are going, before you can get there. Otherwise you will wander aimlessly.

Jesus tells us to seek first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness (Matt 6:33).

This is the goal that both is the purpose why we live, the goal to which we are headed, and which defines the route we will follow. When we do this, God promises to supply our needs.

What do you want? A life of purpose and direction? Or a life lived aimlessly, for the moment, wandering into trouble at every corner? Choose for a life that is going places!
