Heavenly GPS


 

The first time that I went to Romania, we landed in Frankfort, Germany and rented a car.  We traveled through Germany Austria, Hungary, and into Romania.  Maps were scarce, direction signs were tiny and rare, but we made it.  After sixty or more trips since 1990, my directional instincts are good.  But I am getting older, and the landscape is changing.  New roads and new shopping centers are popping up everywhere.  But last trip, the rental car came with a GPS screen.  What an improvement!  It had all the roads named on the screen, even though most of the street signs were still lacking.  Directions were clear even down to the tiniest village.  Hey, God’s Word is just the same.  If you let the dear Lord lead you through life, He will.  And God knows exactly where you are going and how to get you there.  Our heavenly Father is the ultimate GPS … that is if you let Him.  Solomon said in Proverbs 3:5&6, “Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”  Don’t second-guess the Lord and live your life your own way.  He knows where you are, where you need to be, and how you are going to get there.  If you let God lead, and if you are willing to follow, you will make it safely through life’s twists and turns to your eternal home.  What a great comfort!
