G.P.S. and Navigation

I love technology when it's used in the right way. I find the developments fascinating as well as exhausting since things are ever changing. One of the modern devices I use quite a bit helps me to know where I am going, and I don't have to be glancing at a sheet map while driving (which is a good thing...safety first).

However, sometimes Molly, Steve, or whatever character voice of the day I use will tell me the wrong way to go even after having access to satellite signals and coordinates! So, I am often heard arguing with the device out of frustration when it gives me the wrong advice. When this happens, I have to employ what I call a common sense override as it "recalculates." Not every device does what it claims to do with the greatest accuracy and efficiency. That's why there's the constant need for updates.

What do you use to direct the pathways and directions in your life? For a lot of people, G.P.S. stands for good practical sense as their means for guidance. This is not necessarily bad, but this way has it's flaws. Our sense can only make sense of life sometimes, and then we need a better way for recalculating. May I suggest to you today that for Christians G.P.S. stands for "God's Positioning System" that goes with another G.P.S. "God's Plan of Salvation."

The Bible says in Proverbs 3:5-6, " ⁵ Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding;⁶ in all your ways acknowledge him,and he will make your paths straight." So, trust God today to get you where you need to be, to redirect you when you are lost, and to ultimately say to you at the end of your journey that "you have reached your destination."

...and that's what i'm talking about. Rob
