You hear the name Rand McNally and immediately you think of roadmaps. Rand McNally is the world's largest commercial mapmaker. I recently saw an advertisement for Rand McNally that stated that Rand McNally and Company offers the most trusted tools to discover, map and navigate your world. Founded in 1856 and headquartered in Skokie, Illinois, its motto is, "Rand McNally...the most trusted name on the map."

I want to give you a roadmap for the New Year and it is the most trusted roadmap ever given. Many a traveler has found it to be trustworthy and reliable. In fact, all who have followed it have never lost their way or deviated from the right path. All customers that have used it have been completely satisfied. It is a roadmap that will guide you through the New Year and for all life. The roadmap I am referring to is Proverbs 3:5-6. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. 3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

I get the idea of a roadmap from the word "ways" in verse six. The word speaks of a road. We are all travelers on the highway of life and Proverbs 3:5-6 gives us a roadmap to guide us on our journey. I know if we all follow this map, this year could be the best year ever. I truly hope so for us all. God bless you all. We love each and every one of you.
