GPS Anyone?
I punched in the address on my GPS system and waited for the satellite to find out where I was located. Soon the voice spoke and said follow the highlighted route and at the same time a map of my location came on the screen. I was set to start off towards my pre-programmed destination. The sun was shining and the day promised to be a good one.
Putting the car into gear I was to follow the highlighted route displayed. I went out on my adventure with an assured hope that I would get there without incident. I encountered new scenery along the un-chartered territory I had never seen before. The trip so far was going smoothly. Suddenly I came to a spot where the large detour sign glared at me. Orange barrels came out of nowhere and I felt some anxiety. Following the detour signs would take me off of my pre-programmed path.
Following the detour sign the silent voice of my GPS spoke up with reassurance. RECALULATING! Her feminine motherly voice assured me that she knew about the correction and that she would make the corrections to direct me to the programmed destination. All I had to do was listen to her voice and follow her directions. The GPS was guided by the satellite way above me. It gave her a new rout option that I could not see. All I could see was what was in front of me. I had to trust her directives.

God is our guide, our protector, our source of direction. The bible is the satellite that guides. When we come to the detours of life along the way we should hear an audible RECALCULATING from the Word of God. Sometimes the streets we drive down are a one way street with a dead end. If we would listen to the voice of God; our direction would not be hindered by a slight detour. We would still reach God’s destination for us if we would trust God’s directives.
God provides the source of our direction by guiding us ever so gently and by placing His protective hedge around us. His system which is the Word of God never breaks down or is clouded over with digital transmissions. Using God’s GPS will get you through life with a minimum of detours so that you will be able to do His will without hearing too many times RECALCULATING!
