Henry David Thoreau said, the path of least resistance leads to crooked rivers and crooked men. Good words, I think as you and I live in a culture where it can be so tempting to take the path of least resistance, tempting to just go along, to get along. Well, I was in college, home for spring break, talking excitedly with my mom about what I was learning and what I was doing, and my mother listened quietly, and then she warned me, Tim, you're like a sponge soaking up everything around you... Well, I knew that my mom was pretty smart about things, and I try to take seriously her warning about not being a sponge, about taking everything in and taking the path of least resistance going along to get along. Now, all this takes me to a verse of scripture that I do pray will guide me that it might guide you.
