”This is what the Lord says: “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’“
Jeremiah 6:16
God’s people needed His help at the crossroads of life’s decisions. Far too often, they hadn’t adhered to His revealed instructions. So Moses implored the people to “choose life” by following His commands (Deuteronomy 30:19).
Later, the prophet Jeremiah offered words of direction to God’s wayward people, wooing them to follow His ways (Jeremiah 6:16). The ancient paths of Scripture and God’s past provision can direct us.
