You show me the path of life. In your presence there is fullness of joy.
Psalm 16:11
A completely unexpected devotion written as I sit on the rocks at Auke Rec with my buddies Augie and Sunny, enjoying a beautiful day. Coming through the woods there was a labyrinth made of crushed shells. Not something that was here yesterday. 
Oxford defines a labyrinth as “a complicated irregular network of passages or paths in which it is difficult to fine one’s way; a maze”
It makes me think of life. A journey of the unexpected. Sometimes easy, other times not so much. It can be a challenging, filled with highs and lows, ups and downs. Sometimes we may feel lost along the way. 
Holy Week will soon be upon us. Think about Jesus’ journey not only during this emotional week but his entire life journey. With its culmination being crucified for all of us. 
A prayer I found online.

Heavenly Father,

As I enter this labyrinth, I come before You with a humble heart, seeking Your presence and guidance.

May the winding path before me be a reflection of my spiritual journey, with each step bringing me closer to You.

As I walk this labyrinth, I pray that You will guide my feet and lead me along the right path. Help me to let go of any burdens or worries that I may be carrying and surrender them to You. Fill me with Your peace and love as I move forward on this journey.

May this labyrinth be a place of spiritual renewal and refreshment for me. May I encounter You in a new and profound way, and may my time here be a reminder of Your constant presence and care.

Thank You, Lord, for the gift of this labyrinth and for the opportunity to draw closer to You through it. May Your blessings be upon me as I walk, and may Your grace sustain me each step of the way.

In Jesus' name I pray,
