The Shortcut that Isn’t a Shortcut

This morning I was thinking about my issues last night in getting my WiFi Router to work properly.
You see, I knew what I needed to do the whole time, but I thought I could figure it out by changing a setting on the notebook.
I knew what needed to be done, but I thought I could do it better myself. Turns out, I was wrong.
I think often in our own walk with Jesus, deep down we know what our next step should be, but we don’t like it, so we try to find a different route. The thing is–there often isn’t a second route. When we face a bridge, there’s only one way to cross it, and we need to do what needs to be done–no gallivanting around will get you across the bridge you face.
Next time you find yourself in a place in your walk with Jesus where you know the next step you need to take, just do it. Don’t waste your time trying to find a way around it–just do it.
I’m talking to myself here.
