Take the Eternal Paths.

"Thus says the Lord: stand by the roads and look and ask for the eternal paths, where the good old way is; then walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls."

-Jeremiah 6:16.

What are the eternal paths?

I see a graveyard, in there the souls that have long passed. If they could cry out from the grave, they would say lead me to the everlasting path, I no longer want to be trapped by my own insecurities. I want to be free to love.

Love is the eternal path. The path less chosen because of fear.

Stuck in fear they lay, never living the life they truly wanted, afraid to take chances for fear of failure. But if they had followed the eternal path of love, they would never have been lost. Lost they were. Lost they are. No rest for their souls.

Trust, trust is a big part of following this path. Every day you will be given the chance to trust love or follow fear. It's subtle, you must pay close attention, you must feel the vibration. You must come to know intimately the difference between peace and hate, love and fear.

You must tune in carefully, extending your hands to the heavens, allowing the Holy Spirit to descend upon you. Ask and receive instruction. Listen quietly to what comes. Always stopping to listen quietly to what comes.

You cannot be afraid of this idea of "crazy". Crazy, spirit filled is what you want, like like Harriet Tubman, the "moses of her people" filled with visions, second sight and internal knowing, she helped free so many slaves, bringing them to safety.

How magnificent to fellowship with God like this. You absolutely can do this. Or you can choose to fellowship with darkness, but you don't want that.

Light is the path you choose. Peace is the path you choose. Free is the path you choose. Take care to take the right path, the eternal paths.

Do not doubt your calling. You are here for such a time as this.
