Today’s modern highways
no longer follow the natural terrain. Highway departments cut through
mountains, build bridges over rivers, and fill ravines with rip-rap and dirt to
level the landscape and make roads smooth. The words of Isaiah the prophet
apply to John the Baptist, “A voice of one calling in the desert, ‘Prepare
the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him. Every
valley shall be filled in, every mountain and hill made low. The crooked roads
shall become straight, the rough ways smooth. And all
mankind will see God’s salvation’” (Luke 3:4-6 NIV).
