Who's Navigating Your Life?

Life is journey. Plain and simple. And lets be honest, sometimes the road is rough and the destination is...well...typically unclear. But what if I told you that I knew a guy with an infallible road map, and this map had suggestive dos & don'ts. I would say they're more like "Road Rules". You see, we live in a world where every decision we make, every word we speak and every thought we think has the power to steer us in any direction we choose...what power! (Proverbs 18:20-21)




"When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild.
...But whoever obeys the law is joyful.(NLT) Proverbs 29:18

Some of us tend to feel completely lost 100% percent of the time! When was the last time you went on a road trip? Ever take a wrong turn, or thought you knew a "short cut"? Or you swear up and down that you know the directions to your destination but NEVER seem to reach it? Well here are some simple "Road Rules" to keep you on track!

1.) Stop & Look Around!
What are we doing to lead us off course? Compare YOUR directions with the infallible road map.

2.) Admit it & Quit It!
I know I know! It's like a real life game of "Operation". It straight up hurts! But you cannot effectively redirect your life, if you won’t even admit that there is misdirection. Let alone do anything to fix it. It's difficult but you can do it! It's the only solution to road pollution! Heb. 12:11

3.) Move Forward!
It's never too late for a fresh start! Remember, feeling forgiven has nothing to do with being forgiven. Don't let guilt rule your present, it will only ruin your future. So take a deep breathe and keep on truckin'!






"So take a new grip with your tired hands and strengthen your weak knees.  13 Mark out a straight path for your feet so that those who are weak and lame will not fall but become strong." (NLT) Hebrews 12:12-13
