God is like a GPS. You're completely dependent, or else you're lost.

I will get where I'm headed in due time. Here lately, I have been thinking alot about my future. Where to go to college, what I'm going to do as a profession, what to do in the meantime, etc. I have prayed since I gave my life to the Lord for his will to be done in my life. However, I often find myself spending more time asking for God's will to fall into my lap, rather than going out and doing his will. His will is for us to love others as He has loved us, and for us to allow Him to love us in the way that He wants to- Not the way we want him to. When God loves, he consumes. His love breaks down all barriers, hang-ups, chains, and insecurities. God's love floods the hearts of those who let him in. In his love, he gives us Grace. Grace is not the same thing as favor though. Grace is the empowerment to do what we cannot do on our own. It's room to breathe, it's a relationship in which you don't have to walk around on eggshells. You know that God is for you, and not against you.

God holds all of my days, and he gives me the very breath I breathe. I so often forget how much attention He pays to the details of my life. Psalm 139 says he knows my down sitting and my uprising. Know what that means? It means God keeps up with me. He's not off somewhere in the dark, having no idea as to what I'm going through. He's right there, by my side, watching and taking part in my life. He's guiding my steps, and making my paths plain because I have put my trust in Him (Proverbs 3).

So, who am I to doubt God's ability to get me where I need to go? His proveniente grace is before us, preparing our way. Even when we feel like we're wondering around in the middle of the desert, God is forming us through the wondering. It is not always a bad thing. It's kind of like depending on a GPS. When you're not sure where you're going, and you're completely dependent on turn by turn directions. Sometimes, He says turn left. Sometimes, he hands you a map. It all depends on the place of your Journey, as well as your destination. Either way, know that if God simply hands you a map, he's taught you how to read it. Think outside of the box, stay faithful in prayer, and continue to endure.
