RAY

Good Morning!

What did we do before GPS?  We used to stop and ask for directions and

unfold paper maps across the steering wheel while driving. Now we enter

our destination into our car’s GPS unit and do whatever it tells us to do. We

have a destination, a goal, but don’t know how to get there. Fortunately, our

GPS does.  It takes us, by twists and turns, where we need to go.

God has a goal for our life and a way of getting us there. The goal is

conformity to the image of Christ, and the way of getting there is the twists

and turns of life's difficult parts.  Could we get there without all the

difficulties? Possibly—but Jesus didn’t. He suffered on the way to God’s

destination for Him; it was how He learned obedience to the Father.  We will

also be tested, but you must be committed to the route on which He takes

you. You must have FAITH that you will arrive.
