I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how Isaiah looks and feels. More importantly, how God wants it to look and feel.
The other day, I had a meeting with three wonderful people who have come alongside of me to give me some much needed advice. We were talking about roads and which one to take for Isaiah – which one best represented who Isaiah is.

One of them asked me’ Do you want to be the High Road?’ -  that is the road specially designed for those who have a faith and would ‘get us’ in an instant.

‘Or, do you want to be the Low Road’  – that is the road that keeps who we are and what we represent quiet – let’s not shout about it on this road!!

Finally he asked me ‘ Or, do you want to take the middle road and be a bridge between the two?’ Well, that one sort of fit in my spirit, but I wasn’t quite sure what to say in response – all I knew is what God had told me to do, which was to take His word out onto the streets, to be on the retail high street, but with messages that made a difference. You know, the light went into the dark places and lit it up. That sort of thing.

So, I took it to Him the next morning. I asked Him which road to take and to be and how He saw it. I went through my three options, the High Road? The Middle Road and the bridge? Or do you want me to take the Low Road? Which one Father?

And this is what He said. Jesus was and is a bridge. Be a bridge.

I love that. That is so cool – Jesus is a bridge. So, friends, we are traveling along the Middle Road. I get a feeling that this one is narrow and marked with  a lot hard choices, and little compromise, but this is what He said, so this is what we do. Because I know my God and I know He loves me and I know He is with me in the hard times and the easy times.

Amen, so be it.
