Highways, Crossroads, Ancient Paths

All those words I posted the last couple of days lead me to Isaiah 35:8-10

And a highway will be there;
    it will be called the Way of Holiness;
    it will be for those who walk on that Way.
The unclean will not journey on it;  wicked fools will not go about on it.
No lion will be there, nor any ravenous beast; they will not be found there. But only the redeemed will walk there,
10     and those the Lord has rescued will return.
They will enter Zion with singing; everlasting joy will crown their heads.
Gladness and joy will overtake them, and sorrow and sighing will flee away.

Years ago we sang this as a praise chorus. (Singing Scripture is a powerful way to learnt the words!) To this day I can remember the melody. I think ‘everlasting joy will crown their heads’ likely refers to the thoughts we think. Paul said to take captive every thought unto Christ Jesus. I believe that when we do that we do experience everlasting joy.

May your travels on the highway with the Trinity be filled with gladness and joy.
