A FORK IN THE ROAD OF LIFE | Psalm 37:5

When you come to the fork in the road, take it. That's a yogi-ism, it was spoken by famed New York Yankee catcher, Yogi Berra. That's what Yogi told teammate Joe Gratia about getting to his house. When you come to the fork in the road, take it... You know, there's some pretty good advice in that old yogi-ism is that when you come to a fork in the road of life, when you come to that place where you have to choose to go one way or the other, you can't just wait there, you can't turn back, you have to choose a way to take... And you know sometimes that your whole future depends on the way that you take, and you want God's help.

I have a verse today from the Psalms about coming to a fork in the road of life and seeking the Lord's help. I'm looking at Psalm 37, Verse 5. It's a Psalm of David who had come to many forks in the road of life, and it's the voice of experience when David says Psalm 37:5, Commit your way to the Lord. Trust in Him, and He will act. This is a verse, it was often quoted by missionary doctor and famed explorer David Livingston as he traveled what was unexplored Africa, and this verse often helped Dr. Livingston when he came to that fork in the road. Commit your way to the Lord. Trust in Him. And he will act. And I'm thinking that this might be just the verse for you today. As you're needing to make a decision, as you're needing to choose which way to go.
