The Path Ahead

One of the life-giving recreational activities in the Ozarks is the various walking and bike riding trails. Anytime you’re going to a new trail, there is a thrill in learning about the trail, where to cross rivers or streams, where the campsites are, and any points of interest that you won’t want to miss. More than knowing all the details is the ability to see the whole path from start to finish. When you’re on the trail, your perspective is limited to what you can see right in front of you, but the map has a way of giving a bigger perspective.

As we continue our fasting, many of us are praying for situations in which, from our perspective, we cannot see the path ahead. From what we can see, things may seem impossible.

Yet fasting has a way of orienting our perspective from what we see to what God sees. God knows the whole path of our lives, from start to finish. In Isaiah 43:19, God invites us to look at things from His point of view:

“See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.”

As we dedicate ourselves to the Lord through fasting, He begins to change our perspective so that we can see what He is doing and how He is working. It’s an incredible gift that God tells us that the path He leads us on “springs up.” When our hearts are in-tune with Him, we will not miss His plan. He makes it obvious; it springs up!

As we fast, our hearts are changing and gaining a godly perspective. God already has a path for us, and He will show us the way forward as we pray.
