"Wherever you walk, their counsel can lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up in the morning, they will advise you.
For these commands and this teaching are a lamp to light the way ahead of you. The correction of discipline is the way to life."
"Mark out a straight path for your feet; then stick to the path and stay safe."
Proverbs 6:22-23; Proverbs 4:26
The ski trails on the mountains have ropes which designate the boundary markers. Staying within the boundaries give a safe, fun and freeing time on the slopes. There are warning signs on these ropes which caution what can happen if someone ignores them and ski's beyond them: "There is no ski patrol or protection for those who venture out beyond the boundary markers. Your safety and life are in danger."
Despite this, many people have ignored these warnings and ski outside of them. Every year, someone needs to be rescued at great expense and some have even lost their lives: all for a "fun time."
God has given us boundary markers for our lives that provide a secure, free and enjoyable lifestyle. They are all in God's Word. Proverbs 6:22-23 says:
"Wherever you walk, their counsel can lead you. When you sleep, they will protect you. When you wake up in the morning, they will advise you.
For these commands and this teaching are a lamp to light the way ahead of you. The correction of discipline is the way to life."
So often we feel that freedom is doing whatever we want when we want to. However, true freedom is found in the security of following the commands of God. God's protection is so that we can enjoy His promises. He wants to protect us so He can provide for us!
We have the freedom to ignore the boundary markers. God won't stop us. However, He longs to show us how incredibly secure, free, and blessed life can be when we follow His path.
"Mark out a straight path for your feet; then stick to the path and stay safe." (Proverbs 4:26 NLT)
