It is good to be near God


God doesn't always work in the way that seems best to us.  We may see faster, cheaper, nicer, more enjoyable routes, but that may not be God's way.  God didn't guide the Isrealites directly from Egypt to the promise land.  He took them a longer way to avoid fighting the Philistines.  In the same way, when we follow God's path, he goes with us.  His presence with us on the journey is more important than anything else, even the destination.  God can see the end of Journey from the beginning.  As the Hebrews looked to the pillars of cloud and fire, you can look to God's word day and night as a lamp to guide your feet.  The Holy Spirit will teach you everything and will remind you of everything Jesus have told you.
