Not too long ago, I was driving with a friend in his fancy new SUV to the airport. I was enjoying the nice leather smell of the upholstery and the beautiful wood finish on the console as the seats gently embraced my body in exquisite comfort. I loved the high vantage point of the vehicle and the smooth ride. Yet, the one thing that fascinated me the most was the fancy navigation system that seemed to have a life of its own.
My friend simply entered his destination into the computer, which checked the position of the vehicle with the global positioning satellite. As he drove, the navigation system started to give him advance warning of upcoming turns and how far away his destination was. This was an amazing experience! All my friend had to do was to obey the instructions, and he was guaranteed to arrive at his destination! What a wonderful tool to navigate the confusing freeways and roadways of the modern city!
This experience stayed with me and made me wonder, “Wouldn’t it be nice if we could have a similar navigation device at our disposal that we could listen to to help us arrive at the right destinations in our lives?”
I felt a gentle nudge and I remembered that I have a build in Navigator already, Who can help me get to where I am supposed to go in this world. His name is Holy Spirit.
