TRACKS IN THE SNOW

Follow the way of love!
Skip along the path of joy!
Stroll the lane of peace!
Plod the track of patience!
Walk the street of kindness!
Run the road of goodness!
Endure the boulevard of faithfulness!
Tip-toe on the trail of gentleness!
March the pavement of self-control!


 Following tracks from the Spirit, it can be done!

Since we live by the Spirit,
let us keep in step with the Spirit.
Galatians 5:25

and

But the fruit of the Spirit is
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness,
goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
Against such things there is no law.
Galatians 5:22-23

How often we have desired a letter from God. What should I do next? Where do you want me to go?
But then, we remember these verses and they are like tracks in the snow, showing us the way to go.
Here's another one:

Follow the way of love
and eagerly desire spiritual gifts,
especially the gift of prophecy.
1 Corinthians 14:1

The way of love is the most excellent way. 
The path of joy is the most exhilarating way.
The lane of peace is the most satisfying way.
The track of patience is the most rewarding way.
The street of kindness is the most pleasing way.
The road of goodness is the most effective way.
The boulevard of faithfulness is the most electrifying way.
The trail of gentleness is the most intriguing way.
The pavement of self-control is the most awesome way.

Is it not true?

Pray for God's tracks! 
When I look on the snow in my neck of the woods, I'd like to see God's tracks for me. 
I trust you are looking to God for provision and strength, relying on Him and His word.
Because of Jesus, we have direction, purpose—a way to follow!
Through prayer, every day, live with hope!
