My alarm was set for 6am, but I awoke at 5, because I’m always excited to hike in the mountains. So I read my Bible, then pulled out a map to study the trails. On this particular hike I was going with my daughter, Gabrielle, and my dear friends Danny and Cindy Tesney.

Danny brewed coffee fit for a king…but I drank it anyway. We drove to the trailhead for our 7 mile day hike. The trail led to a lush cove with two 100 foot waterfalls cascading close to each other, in stunning symmetry.

We lingered at the falls, and then began our return hike. We hadn’t seen anyone on the trail until we came across a couple that asked, “Have you passed a girl with a dog?” We had not. The couple said, “She must have gone on to the falls.” But that wasn’t possible, because we were just at the falls. Maybe she had made a wrong turn. I asked them if she had a map, and they replied, “No, we have the map. She just wanted to go on ahead of us.”

Eventually, all ended well with this story, but many times there is not a happy ending. That day, Danny and I both had maps. I also had a map on my phone, and at 5:30 that morning I had memorized portions of the map, because maps are essential.

The same principal applies to our lives. God knew that life would be confusing. So many choices, yet there is only one path that will leads us Home. God doesn’t want anyone to be lost, so He gave us the Bible…the most essential map we will ever need.
