In college, I worked for my aunt in her upholstery shop.  Cutting and measuring fabric, payroll, and sewing were a few of my responsibilities.  On rare occasion, I covered myself in trash bags to enter the sweltering outdoor workshop to stuff pillow forms with down.  More feathers landed in my nostrils than the pillows, especially with the industrial fan circulating the warm, humid air. At least everyone had a good laugh – at my expense – whenever I performed this task.

But my favorite responsibility occurred on Fridays.  This was the day my aunt and I spent the day going to homes and businesses measuring furniture and making deliveries. This was a time before cell phones, Siri, and GPS.  Our go to guide was a Key Map.  This little orange book held all the directions needed for navigating Houston.  Of course, a special skill is imperative for navigating this book.

And that’s where we got into trouble.

My aunt would drive while I navigated in the passenger seat.  The key map open in my lap did little to get us where we were going.  I turned that book left, right, upside down, but with little success.  We went right when we should have turned left, and left when we should have turned right.  We would get so turned around we would stop to ask directions at the nearest gas station.

We were often late for appointments.  Clients would nod and laugh about our Key Map misadventures, yet we knew their time was valuable and tardiness was not ok.

There have been times in my life when reading my Bible felt like reading the key map and numerous wrong turns have been taken. God tells us in Proverbs 3:6 if we acknowledge him in all our ways, he will make our path straight.  There may be mountains to climb and valleys to cross, but if we stay single minded in our walk toward Jesus, our path is straight.

Follow His directions.

They are always right.
