When Life Takes A Turn And You're Heading Straight

Sometimes things seem to come out of left field. You felt everything was going smoothly and you’re heading straight on the interstate. Then, all of a sudden, you take a turn, a detour off of an exit that you don’t want to go. You’re wondering how this happened? Where will this detour lead? You’re looking for signs to where you need to go to get back, but you’re now lost and starting to panic. GPS is recalculating and you’re on your own. Or are you? Are you ever on your own? Or do we just not call upon the only One that can really help us no matter what. He is there, always. We just get so wrapped up in trying to fix or control things that we think we have it all figured out when we probably don’t. Seek God when you’re on the road of life, He is the One that will never lead you astray, and unlike your GPS, He won’t lead you on some back road shortcut to save you a minute.

“And as he sat on the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man lead you astray. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am the Christ; and shall lead many astray.”

Matthew 24:3-5
