Pointing me on my way into your loving arms…” “Every long lost dream led me to where you are “Before I was afflicted I went astray, but now I keep your word.” (Psalm 119:67) Also, my losses are divinely-designed road signs pointing me back onto His narrow path. My “losses” have only lightened me from continuing to carry the heavy backpack of worldly affections. My relationship with Him today or tomorrow would not be the same if these painful things had not occurred! He knew what I needed to go through on MY journey because He knows me and loves me so well. It is to settle, once and for all, by faith in God and his word, that HE is overseeing my entire journey from start to finish! He has designed it ALL, the good, bad and ugly, to lead me into His loving arms.

How can I look at my past and not feel a victim of past stumbles, falls or outright wrong turns I have made? There is only one way to be free from the torment. I ask myself, “How can I see the blessing of this broken road so clearly for THEM but not for MYSELF?” It is clear as I have gotten to know their stories that they have each been led through individual “broken roads” while on their way to coming to know Christ. It has been a great joy to be with men who are hungry to grow in their relationship with Christ. I have had the privilege the last several months to be growing with five men on individual Zoom calls and share with them things that have been helpful for me in my journey of faith. It is a road that leads to an endless hope! It will only be a broken road that leads to NOWHERE.a hopeless end.īUT if it is actually a road that has “led (us) into (God’s) loving arms” then this road is not cursed but actually blessed. This road is cluttered with past relationships that disappointed…dreams that have died…plans that went awry…happy seasons that won’t return. We will only CURSE our broken road if our loving Savior is not awaiting us at its end. That is exactly the same for us in our spiritual journey towards Christ. All the pain that the lover endured would have been “pointless pain” if there had been no loving arms to fall into at road’s end. Much of this broken road has to do with our jealous God’s faithful weaning of us from our “love of the world.” The Apostle John describes those unholy affections as “the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life” that do not originate from our heavenly Father’s heart. On this road we have struggled with frustrations, pains, losses, failings, and disappointments. Yet, it is also a song that resonates strongly with us who have walked on this rocky road of following Christ. It is a beautifully written romantic song. They had undergone much disappointment and heartbreak to be able to finally fall into each others’ arms. This popular song from a few years back was primarily about the love between a man and a woman.
