The Direction of Up

Published on 15 October 2024 at 05:00

Where are you heading in life? Is it a career, school, marriage, a house, ministry, or do you have a plan? These things may be in God's will, but, they're not the direction of your life. Proverbs 15:24 says, "The path of life leads upward for the wise that he may keep away from sheol below." People head in all directions to reach their goal in life. But Proverbs doesn't say the path of life leads north, south, east, or west - but up. So if any goal in this world becomes the final goal, the end reason of why you're doing what you do, your direction is no longer upward. Your goal should never be to get from point A to B, but rather to rise up from the earthly to the heavenly, from selfishness to love, from ungodliness to holiness, from the carnal to the spiritual. Take that step that will lead you higher up in God. The path of life is better than north, south, east, or west. For the direction of our life is up!

And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting! (ESV)
