Tuesday, July 23rd, was the first day of the Eastern Michigan State Fair here in Imlay City. When both of my now grown boys were younger, they participated in 4-H which is a big part of this fair. We spent a few of our summers with many hours caring for their animals and hanging out at this fair. So where am I going with this? The parking. Because we had to be there early, parking wasn't an issue. But as the fairgoers began to arrive later in the day, police mounted on horseback would direct in the lot. According to some, this years first day was a bit chaotic. For whatever the reason may be, on Tuesday afternoon the police were not present to give direction and as I said earlier, chaos ensued. There was no thing or no one to bring order out of this chaos. This leads my thoughts to God's word, the Bible. His word brings order. It brings a sense of direction and security. Those words give us guidance which helps us to navigate difficult times. The Bible teaches us how to treat others and shows us when we are wrong and guides us to correction. When you read God's word, it can help you to think differently and grow in maturity and a WHOLE lot more. So as we all try to maneuver through this parking lot we call life, let's look to the direction of those mounted police or to put it in another way, God's word. It is the best way to get out of this parking lot and make it safely home.
