Life if a journey that takes us in many different directions and through many difficult situations.
There are moments in life when we feel we cannot continue on or we have hit a wall.
We feel lonely and frustrated. It is often in those moments that we find ourselves searching. Sometimes we don�t even know what we are looking for, but still we keep looking. It is often during those times we end up making bad decisions. We choose bad relationships or substitutes for relationships.
If there is a God, then he must have a plan and there must be directions somewhere.
If we are going to properly prepare for our life�s journey we need to know God�s truth. His truth will give us direction. God�s truth will also help us eliminate baggage in our lives that can weigh us down and keep us from moving forward and reaching our potential.
John 8:32
Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
Exodus 12:1-13
[1] The LORD said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, [2] "This month is to be for you the first month, the first month of your year. [3] Tell the whole community of Israel that on the tenth day of this month each man is to take a lamb for his family, one for each household. [4] If any household is too small for a whole lamb, they must share one with their nearest neighbor, having taken into account the number of people there are. You are to determine the amount of lamb needed in accordance with what each person will eat. [5] The animals you choose must be year-old males without defect, and you may take them from the sheep or the goats. [6] Take care of them until the fourteenth day of the month, when all the people of the community of Israel must slaughter them at twilight. [7] Then they are to take some of the blood and put it on the sides and tops of the doorframes of the houses where they eat the lambs. [8] That same night they are to eat the meat roasted over the fire, along with bitter herbs, and bread made without yeast. [9] Do not eat the meat raw or cooked in water, but roast it over the fire--head, legs and inner parts. [10] Do not leave any of it till morning; if some is left till morning, you must burn it. [11] This is how you are to eat it: with your cloak tucked into your belt, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. Eat it in haste; it is the LORD's Passover.[12] "On that same night I will pass through Egypt and strike down every firstborn--both men and animals--and I will bring judgment on all the gods of Egypt. I am the LORD. [13] The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are; and when I see the blood, I will pass over you. No destructive plague will touch you when I strike Egypt.
