Have you ever tried to open a simple package of chips, crackers, peanuts or trail mix? If you don’t tear the package at the right spot, it becomes increasingly difficult to open. But ordinarily, there is a mark on each package that says “open here” or “tear here.” It’s all about starting right and following directions.
When you do it right, it opens with no difficulty. But when you try to open it differently than it is designed, even a little piece of plastic becomes a major frustration. I know, because I just threw away a perfectly good package of trail mix, because it wouldn’t open. Don’t judge me. It just wasn’t worth the effort.
The scripture tells us in Psalm 119: 9, 11 says, “How can a young person stay pure? By obeying your word. 11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.”
There’s a right way to start living and there is a wrong way.
The right way is following the instructions of the Word of God. This will keep you on the right path in the favor of God. Any other way will lead to self-destruction.
The word of the day is right way. Yes there is a right way and there is a wrong way. Jesus is always the right way. Follow Him and follow His words and you will always be blessed.
