Changing Lanes

There’s 2 sides to every coin and 2 sides to every story. There’s 2 sides of the street, 2 sides of the bed, 2 sides to almost everything. Oh’ the pendulum swing ... Yes or No Right or Wrong Go or Stay Winners or Losers Every thing has 2 sides. Recently while driving the traffic was at a stand still and I noticed I was in the left lane and it was a Merge Right situation. I could tell many were caught off guard as well and were sharply cutting over to get back to the right as the left lane closed abruptly. It was stressful and frustrating and soon became a bit chaotic because everyone wanted to be ahead of the other person. As I waited for the aggressive drivers to go ahead, I started thinking ... Where was the notice that the one lane was going to end? How were we to know we needed to Merge Right? This could be dangerous ... Why is everyone in such a hurry? Can’t they see that the left lane ends and we can’t go anywhere? Do I jolt out there and push my way to the right or keep waiting...? Something about “Merge Right” spoke to me. Daddy God was downloading a spiritual truth from a natural situation. How many times do you find yourself in the wrong lane? The wrong line? The wrong choice? Do you ever have buyers remorse? We all hear the saying to “just stay in your lane” etc. But what if God is closing the current lane and needs you to Merge Right? You are gonna have to leave your lane or risk getting hit or stuck or come to a complete dead end. Sometimes there are no warning signs that you need to leave one lane to go to the other. Sometimes there are and we were too busy to notice them... Do you wait till everyone passes or just jump out in Faith you won’t get sideswiped? What if you are holding so tightly to one side and you should be on the other? What if you are to flip that coin, cross that street, adjust things, wake up on the other side of the bed or whatever spectrum you have been living or find yourself in? Of course some things are clearly easier to decide sides ... Heaven & Hell Good & Evil Justice & Corruption Truth & Lies Love & Hate But still there is always 2 sides 2 ways you can choose to go. Today, ask yourself... Does this side I currently find myself on represent my goals, my values, my thoughts, my future, my destiny, Jesus? morals? Love, goodness, Truth, justice, Heaven...? Do I need to possibly Merge Right? ... and try a new path, perspective, choice, decision, way of doing things so that I am not caught off sides for the things that matter most. Maybe that stay in your lane stuff is not so good advice after all... “Every word You speak, every truth revealed, is always right and beautiful to me, for I hate what is phony or false. ~ Psalm 119:128 TPT ~ XXOO Michelle Cosby Bollom #LiveRestored #MindBodySoul www.restoredministries.org
