Show me the right path, O Lord; point out the road for me to follow.
Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.
—Psalm 25:4–5 (NLT)
In math class, you learn that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. So let’s pretend that you are at point A and I am at point B. The quickest way for you to get from A to B—to Me—is through the straight line of unwavering trust.
The key is unwavering. It means trusting Me constantly, no matter what. Because when your trust wavers—when sometimes you trust Me a lot, other times only a little, and other times you completely forget Me—then your straight line of trust starts to have lots of twists and turns. You can still reach Me—eventually. But you will have wasted a lot of time and gone through a lot of unnecessary trouble. When you realize that your trust has wavered, just whisper, “I trust You, Jesus.” And I will draw you back onto the right path with Me.
Trust in Me with all your heart, and I will make your path straight.
