Chapter 15 - Just down the road a piece!

MY QUESTION:
Just down the road
a
piece!


There is more to this simple southern directional term than meets the eye. When you think of your relationship with GOD, consider it not being a short trip from point a to point b. It is not just a one day a week act of pretending.
It is a long road and an everyday commitment to the WORD and HIM! I am so glad that I got out of the way and asked for directions from the BOOK. 
Any thoughts?

Not just a short or long trip, but an eternal one; and the destinations in our future once we "graduate' from the physical realm are beyond our imagination.
Isaiah 64:4--From of old no one has heard
Or perceived by the ear,
No eye has seen a God besides you,
Who acts for those who wait for him?
1 Corinthians 2:9--But as it is written: “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

It is a long road and often times the only part that you really see is "just a piece down the road". God says his Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. This seems to indicate that while walking in the dark, the only part of the road visible is what is illuminated by the light/lamp. In the natural, unless you have a high powered flash light you really can't see that far ahead clearly, just a "piece down the road". I've tried arguing with God about this. It would be easier if I could see further with greater clarity at all times. So far He's not interesting in changing His way to suit me. LOL.
