One Way. We have all seen the signs and I would be willing to bet that if you have lived long enough you have gone the Wrong Way at least once? I thought so. It's easy to do. It is not something we usually plan to do. Yet we do it anyway, sometimes knowingly and other times in ignorance. So what do we do? Well usually we turn around and go the other way. However at times there is no place to turn around and we find ourselves having broken the law and yes--at times we have to pay the consequences if we are
"lucky enough" to have survived the ordeal.
This trip to Italy was filled with "One Ways". Europe is notorious for Round-a-Bouts. Italy is notorious for one way (very narrow...very very narrow) streets. Thank God their cars are also little (very very little). Did I mention so are the people? Not short, but very skinny. But that's for another Blog. Needless to say I am full of new blog material--so pass the news and hang with me as we journey this life together.
John 14:6 (NIV) "Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."
There was one way in and out of the airport. One way in and out of restaurants, one way to order and pay for your food, one way to speak to people, one way to eat (slowly, in courses, and you do not order cappuccino before desert or with it, only after it. Did I agree with all these "One Ways"? No, but neither did it change the way things were to be done. I had to adapt.
So today if you are trying to do things "Your Way" remember even Jesus said, there is only one way and no one gets to come another way. Oh and did I mention the word "repent" actually means to turn around and go another way. So hey if you've been breaking the law lately, traveling in the wrong directions or simply doing things in the wrong order? Get right or get left!
Arrivederci!
