When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you: when you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; neither shall the flame scorch you.
Isaiah 43:2

As I traveled to Illinois for the holidays, I ran across an HOV lane in Nashville and no one was in it, so I quickly changed lanes and was able to pass by a lot of slow traffic. HOV stands for “High Occupancy Vehicle” for your information. This lane is reserved for vehicles which have 2 or more people riding in the car during certain times of the day. It started as a way to encourage “car-pooling”.

As I was riding along, seeing that thick traffic to my right, I thought about how we navigate difficult times in life and how God promises to never leave us alone. He is the passenger that allows us to take the less traveled path, He provides a smoother path than what the world has to offer and He gets you to the intended destination much quicker than you could fighting everyone else in the lanes of the world.

Maybe you are struggling with an issue in life and you feel like you are at a standstill, stuck in heavy traffic and your patience is running thin. Ask God to step in to your circumstance so you can get in the His express lane which provides all the necessary resources to get you thru it safely, quickly and with more ease than you can do within your own power and strength! Call on Him today! God bless!
