Two fishermen were driving along a highway with a “closed” sign blocking the main road. They noticed fresh tire tracks leading around the sign, so they decided to follow the tracks and disregard the sign. They had gone some three miles when the road ended at a broken bridge. The only thing to do was to turn around, and on passing the roadblock again they observed this inspection on the reverse of the sign: “it was really closed wasn’t it?”

How often do we ignore God’s roadblocks and directions only to find out, the hard way, that what He said was right!
