I am a GPS person. Perhaps you are as well. Let me explain.
When going to a new place, unsure of where to go, it brings me both peace and comfort to hear my GPS system talking to me as I go along.
She knows exactly where I am to turn, how far of a distance I need to drive till the next direction, and she keeps me on the correct road.
But there is nothing more comforting than when I hear her say, “You have arrived. Your destination is ahead on the left.”
It is then I breathe a sigh of relief for I have arrived without taking a wrong turn, without getting lost, and without having to figure out how to get back on track.
Life doesn’t work in the same manner though. We plan and make decisions hoping for a good outcome. We don’t always know immediately that we have gone the right path and have arrived.
We have been given God’s Word, and His Spirit, to provide wisdom and guidance as we travel through life.
“He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake.” (Psalm 23:3, NASB)

I’m directionally challenged and appreciate GPS too, Joanne!
Love the connection with my desperate need for guidance—on every level!
I count on GPS more than I once did and this is a perfect analogy, Joanne.
I’m waiting for His sweet, ‘you have arrived’ on that day He calls me home. Glory!
We are just as dependent on His Words to guide us as on GPS, Joanne. Great analogy!
I’ve never used a GPS Joanne, I prefer to navigate through the old method with maps & landmarks but I understand the analogy my friend 😊.
Blessings sweet friend,
Jennifer
GPS is great when it’s programmed correctly. However, I have been taken the wrong direction more than once, so I still use old school methods along with my GPS. I’m thankful God never takes us the wrong direction.
