Episode 303: Sometimes, it is ok to walk alone

Sometimes, it’s ok to be walking alone

This happened awhile ago. I was using my navigation system before setting out due to traffic and congestions because of several roadworks.

This particular evening, there was a re-route from the usual route I would normally take. After driving for about 1.5miles, I got to a T-Junction, looked behind and saw (observed) that no car was behind me. No car was following me, neither was there a vehicle in ahead of me. However, there were oncoming vehicles.

I thought to myself- I am definitely taking a wrong path! I was worried! So I halted on the road as no vehicle was behind me anyway, wound the window down and asked someone if the road ahead was closed.

The woman kindly informed me that the road was clear for me to drive through. What a relief!

Still looked behind, no vehicle was following me. The kind woman’s response was re-assuring for me. Interestingly, the route the sat-nav took directed me to paid off.

The Holy Spirit ministered to me right there from the scene and I prayed that you will find encouragement, courage and strength from it.

Sometimes in our lives, our individual journey may require us to walk alone. We may even feel insecure about the path just as I felt.

You may feel pressured to make a u-turn until you are re-assured.

I would love to encourage you today. Please go back to the drawing board.

What is the word God gave you?

What dreams, visions, or prophecy did you receive earlier?

Do you have the habit of writing down your dreams, goals, visions and promptings?

Then, pick up the journal

Re-read it

Read through it

Prayerfully re-read it

Let the Words re-energise and keep you in check and focus.

Remember, it is ok to be walking alone.
