Use GPS to Find the Road of Joy





          Have you had your Joy Juice today?  You’ll never find a “Do Not Enter” sign at the entrance to Joy Road!    

            Why are there signs on certain roads that say: "DO NOT ENTER"?  The road may be closed because of a washed out bridge or some other obstruction that would cause us to be delayed or even injured.

            Many times along the road of life, we are determined to go our own way.  God may put up a “DO NOT ENTER” or even a “DETOUR” sign along the path, but we disregard the message.  It’s when we don’t recognize these signs as warnings that we miss out on the protection and blessing of His best plan.

            We’re not going to always understand God’s ways.  But we can always trust that He knows best and that he will not lead us down the wrong path. He tells us in Isaiah 55:8-9:
           
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.”

God’s knowledge and wisdom are far greater than ours.  Couple that truth with the magnitude of His love for us and we have absolutely no reason to doubt His direction.  The only GPS that we need is GOD’s Positioning System.  He never has to recalculate because He never makes a mistake.  On the other hand, when we try to travel this journey of life alone, we may find ourselves lost and headed in the wrong direction more often than not.

            Let’s plug into the Divine GPS and expect a blessed trip along the Road of Joy.
