How does a person find a path in life? Is there a path?

Question

Does one build the path? does one find it? does one look back and say there it is? Does one learn it? What is your path? What does path mean? What is the purpose of having a path........???????

Answer 1

Each persons path is unique.



Everybody's end objective is to get to the top of the mountain, but each of us starts from a different location.



You must find your own path.

Just because a path works for somebody else does not mean that it will necessarily work for you!



That other person may live on the North side of the mountain in the woods while you live on the South side of the mountain in the city.



Once you HAVE found you own path, even if it is seldom traversed, you will find that others have probably left some marks along the way before you.

Answer 2

Starting with the last questions and working back: A path keeps you on point. If you don't have a path, you might wander around in circles, but never accomplish anything. Path, in this case, means a way of living your life. My path is to be a Christian. Yes. One learns it. Yes. One looks back and says there it WAS, probably more than there it is. Some people find it, some don't. Some people build it, some don't. Yes. There is not only a path, there are many paths. It's up to you to choose.



Ah, the most difficult question of all: How does one find a path in life? One does a lot of thinking, watching, listening. Then pick a few people you admire the very most and pattern your life (actions, etc.) after what you see them do.



It is a law of the universe that "By beholding, we become changed." You will change into the type of person you are around. It's your choice.



God bless you as you find your path.

Answer 3

Your path in life and every thing about you was recorded in a book before the beginning of time itself. Your path has already been determined. You may not know it, but you are ON IT right now. This is why I never worry about the future. The Lord has it all worked out. There's nothing you need to know or search for, it has all been done for you....

Answer 4

There are many paths in that, the way one goes disturbs the things that are along the way. You can follow the way someone else has gone (their path) or you can be true to yourself and cut your own path. Should you completely cut a new path? Or can we learn something from those that have come before us? Will there be people following in your footsteps...it depends on whether they think your path leads them in the direction that they are headed.

Answer 5

The path is the quest for Truth - trying to find the answer to the riddle and enigma that is Life. What path you will follow will largely depend on where you come from or what faith you were born into. You can of course also chart your own course but treading the beaten track is that much easier.

Answer 6

You must first figure out where you're standing in God's eye. Then ask for his guidence. He always talks to you in one way or another. Try asking him for signals. Pray to him and his path shall open for you. Read the Bible. It is said that the Bible is the holy light and it will show you hoe to get to God's path. Remember this, though, God will always be watching and will always know when you are on the verge of trailing away from him. Look for other guidence. This world has driven away from God and now needs restauration. Find God's path, keep in it and bring others along for the ride

Answer 7

Keep asking questions. As long as you're asking questions and listening to others, you're always evolving and becoming a more interesting, mature person. I've never been 80, so I don't know whether one can look back and say, "Wow, I really nailed it," but it seems like even my 65-year-old mom is always learning and thinking and finding new paths. Cuz when you stop searching, you may as well roll over and die. I think.

Answer 8

Your Life Path Number is three Your intent in lifestyles is to precise your special self. You are an artistic and inventive individual with an intriguing view on lifestyles. Witty and outgoing, you experience sharing your loopy recommendations with someone who will pay attention. A whole social butterfly, you are the lifetime of any get together. In love, you encourage and enchant your accomplice. You are by and large an item of fable and want. While you're very proficient, you in many instances lack the ambition to position your expertise in play. And at the same time your wit consists of you some distance, you sometimes use it to masks your real emotions. Your typical capabilities can deliver you all of the luck on the earth ... if you happen to allow them to

Answer 9

Look down at your feet, and there is a good chance you will find a lamp unto it!



Finding the path is simple... Listen, do not talk. And keep an open mind, judge nothing with your mind, let your heart sift the wheat from the chaff...

Answer 10

Just as Jesus followed the path set up for him by his Father, just as he only could be happy doing the will of the One who sent him so must we, follow directions of that One who created all others and who inspired some very good men to write a book of very important lessons for us to live by, in the only book He claims as His... the Bible... You can't go wrong by studying it diligently! 2 Timothy 3: 16... Titus 1: 2... Ephesians, Chapter six...

Answer 11

Matthew chapter 7



13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide [is] the gate, and broad [is] the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

14 Because strait [is] the gate, and narrow [is] the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.



Jesus said, I am the way. (John 14:6)

The narrow path of righteousness.

Find Him and find meaning, joy, fulfillment, purpose, life.

Answer 12

Just keep looking until you find it. Most people recognize their true path by a deep sense of "homecoming."

Answer 15

Answer 16

Instead of "finding" a path, buy a lawnmower and make your own!

Answer 17

Hi,



PATH. That's what your question is all about.



Why is it important to have a path?



Is it a commandment to find a path?



Which path is it?



Those are very important questions.



I'd like first to read



Jeremiah 6:16



" Thus saith the LORD Stand ye in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way; and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls: but they said, We will not walk therein. "



ASK FOR THE OLD PATHS, saith the Lord.



WALK THEREIN.



And ye shall find rest for your souls, saith the Lord.



Is it important to find this path? YES, VERY IMPORTANT.



IT is actually a commandment of God to ask for the Old path, where the good way is.



It's a commandment. Why is it important? Because it's a commandment of the Lord. What shall we get if we found it? Rest for our souls.



Now, What is this Old Path?



Let's read from



Ephesians 2:10



"For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God afore prepared that we should walk in them."



UNTO GOOD WORKS, WHICH GOD AFORE PREPARED THAT WE SHOULD WALK IN THEM.



Where should we WALK in?



IN GOOD WORKS. God afore prepared for us to walk in them.



Good works is the PATH wherein we have to walk.



Now, why is it called OLD PATH?



Let's read Isaiah 56:11



"Yea, the dogs are greedy, they can never have enough; and these are shepherds that cannot understand: they have all turned to their own way, each one to his gain, from every quarter."



There are pastors who turned to THEIR OWN WAY.



They did not want the way of the Lord.



They TURNED.



The Lord commandment was to look for the OLD PATH where the good way is. It was written by Jeremiah, a prophet of nations.



Jeremiah 6:16



" Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way; and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls: but they said, We will not walk therein. "





THE PATH that we have to walk in is the GOOD WORKS which God hath afore prepared.



And what is the MOST Excellent WAY wherein we have to walk?



Let's read from 1 Corinthians 12:31



"But desire earnestly the greater gifts. And moreover a most excellent way show I unto you. "



What is it?



Let's read John 14:6



"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by me. "



Jesus Christ is the WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE.



He is the WAY.



WE should also walk in him. Let's read



Colossians 2:6



"As therefore ye received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him,



rooted and builded up in him, and established in your faith, even as ye were taught, abounding in thanksgiving."



EVEN AS YE WERE TAUGHT.



WE walk in his teachings.



I hope that satisfies your question.

Answer 18

You just live today and hope that all the people you've pissed off in the past don't come back to kill you. I'm so scared I carry a big stick around to hit people with.

Answer 19

"The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish, and the tyrannies of evil men.

Blessed is he who, in good faith and charity, shepherds the weak through the Valley of Darkness for he is truly his brother's keeper, and the finder of lost children.

And I will strike down upon thee, with great vengeance and furious anger, those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.

And you will know my name is The Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee."





Sorry,... just watched "Pulp Fiction" again...;-)

Answer 20

"We are all part of the One Spirit. When you experience the true meaning of religion, which is to know God, you will realize that He is your Self, and that He exists equally and impartially in all beings."
