God Bless You!
In past days if we had to get somewhere we were not familiar with we would use maps or even call in advance for directions (I know it seems like forever since the last time we did that or maybe, I am just getting too old Lol). Today thanks to all of technology’s advances we simply use a GPS system, whether it is an actual GPS device, or the many GPS apps most smartphones offer nowadays. When we need to go somewhere unfamiliar we input our destination info and press “Go”, we then hear that robotic voice start giving us directions and we just follow, and follow, and follow even when it sends us through detours, even when we think it may be taking us in the wrong direction but we still follow. Why am I talking about GPS’ today? It’s very simple…all of the directions we need for this journey called life are in God’s Word…yes, yes, the BIBLE!! The Bible and Jesus are our GPS system!! The Bible has the directions and Jesus is the voice we need to follow (the only voice we should follow…Selah). The Word of God tells us how to receive peace, how to increase our faith, how to free ourselves from the bondage of our past, how to receive healing, how to receive the gift of eternal life, how to get rid of our doubts and fears, it tells us how to live a healthy life, how to bless our future generations. It gives us the instructions for a happy marriage, a successful career, how to have fruitful finances, how to have an efficient ministry, etc. We all have access to this amazing GPS system! Let’s not ignore it trying to face today’s tasks on our own, thinking that we know how to get to our destinations without Jesus’ help …Jesus is the only way! Let’s use His directions and share them with all of those that may be lost along our journey.
