In His Path

One night I left my house and at the end of the road was a trucker without the back of the 18 wheeler. I followed this person for a ways. I then decided to go in a different direction than he was going. I then cut through another road and my attention was brought to a sign “Christian fellowship” and next to that was a sign “In HIS footsteps”. I had never noticed these before. When I got to the light, I took a left, next light I took a right to get to the highway. Next thing I noticed... the truck I was behind since my steet was right in front of me. I stayed behind him for a bit trying to figure out what it was God was showing me. Originally I was thinking he needed prayers as a trucker. As well as his family he leaves at home to drive. On the highway I went around him after a few minutes. When I got off of the ramp to my exit in front of me turning onto the highway was an 18 wheeler that said in big letters across the side, “Cowboys & Angels”. Wow.

Interpretation:

The lost need to find their way.

I kept having “fishers of men” pop into my mind.

Just like there are plenty of fish in the sea to catch, there are plenty of men in this world that need to be found. The lost sheep.

Follow Jesus in His footsteps, join together in Christian fellowship and bring the lost sheep home. Go find the sheep. His lost sheep need Him fishers of men. He will guide you along your way and go before you. You aren’t alone in this. We will go through attacks standing for God to save others. But God is with us and for us the whole time. You may go off in another direction at times, but He will be right there guiding you back to Him as He continues to lead the way.
