How God Sets The Path For Us. Trusting In Him
I needed to get to a dentist appointment on wednesday but i'm very bad with roads. So i decided to use my gps on my phone to help me.
I set up my gps and started driving. Now usually when you drive with a gps, you place the gps in a place where you can glance at it from time to time to make sure you are going the right way or to see when the next turn will be. Most of us do this subconsciously even though the gps will tell us where to go. We honestly just need to listen to the gps instead of glancing at it for it to guide us.
But this time i decided to hide the gps from my view and just listen to the directions it tells me. Just a fun challenge for the day to make things a little more interesting.
While i was driving and curious as to where that gps would say to turn next or how much more i had to drive on the same road, i was also calling out to God in my mind.
I was calling to him because i had situations in my life that i didn't know what to do with or what i should do next. I was having problems in life and needed direction.
That's when God opened up something to me.
Much like the gps, i needed to trust him. Just like the way i was trusting that gps without seeing the map or the destination, i needed to trust him to lead me where he wants me to go. I might not know what turn i will take next or how long i will be on the same path before making any turns or seeing change in my life or seeing his works, but i needed to trust that he will show me the way step by step.
So i kept following the gps till i got onto my last straight road. The gps said my destination will be on my left so i kept driving and just as i was about to pass the dentist, the gps says my destination is on my left. I quickly turn in and get to my appointment.
God doesn't always reveal his plans for you like an open book or a road on the map but he will get you to where he needs you at the right time. It even might be a sharp turn sometimes that you never realized because he wants to see if you will trust him till the end.
God bless you and thank you for reading.
