If only there was a GPS for Life! Or is there?- By: Graysome Dukes

Description : Have you ever wasted months or even years following a road that led to nowhere or worse, led you to a place where you were worse off than before? I have, in fact if the truth be known, more than once! However I am learning. The school of hard knocks comes with a very high price tag. I am hoping that some of what I have learned and seen will lower that price tag for you so you can avoid some of the roads I have found are dead ends.

I have a very dear friend, who a year ago, set off on a path that I knew was not going to be good for her. Her goal was noble, but her road was one that was filled with potholes and S curves. It looked all glamourous and filled with all that life had to offer, but because of my own experiences I knew where it led. Today her life is in shambles with no home, no job, and no money, She has lost multiple friends and the respect of many of her peers. I just find it sad.

How did I know before she started that it was the wrong road? Well not because I am a genius or a prophet, but because of a couple of simple lessons I will share with you.

1. Does the road lead you to put spiritual things first? Jesus said 2 very important things. A. Seek first the kingdom of God and all these "things" will be added to you". That means that as you profit spiritually, the rest of life's needs will come into place.

2. Does the road you are taking cause you to compromise spiritually? He said, "What if you gain the world and lose your soul?" Is what you are doing compromising who you are as a spiritual person, does it violate your values, or cause you to take shortcuts that are ethically questionable?

In both of these situations, my friend ignored my warnings. She put a glamor job above her spirituality and now has paid the price for it.

Is there a GPS for our lives? You betcha! It is having a personal relationship with the One who sees the future. It is developing your spiritual life so that He can give you the warnings and you can hear the warnings about dead ends and pot holes on a dangerous road.

You see, you do not need psychics or fortune tellers to know the future. God already knows and He cares enough about you to tell you. In my blog I have over 80 articles to help you know and understand how to have the type of relationship with God that allows Him to be your GPS for life. I hope you come and visit.
