One of the most beautiful and powerful things that God has given us is the ability to choose. He took a big risk by giving us that power of choice, but He did it because He loved us. Some choices that we face in life have fairly similar outcomes with no major consequences either way. But there are some choices with vastly different outcomes, and if we choose the wrong path, it can end up being much more difficult than we initially thought.
On 28 June 1914, three cars took a wrong turn down a side street in Sarajevo, the capital of Bosnia. When one of the passengers in the third car realised what had happened, he called out to the driver to stop and reverse. Unfortunately, as the driver was reversing, he stalled the car close to where a man was standing with a pistol hidden in his jacket. The assassin couldn’t believe his luck! He quickly walked up to the car, and at point-blank range shot the VIP passengers; Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife Sophie.
That one wrong turn not only left three young Austrian children as orphans. It also dragged an entire planet into its first world war. Fast-forward Four years, and 40 million people had lost their lives. Sometimes wrong turns can lead us down very difficult, even deadly paths.
