Stop striving and know that I am God…. –Psalm 46:10 NASB
There are some people you just can’t invite on a road trip. You’ve carefully planned the trip, mapped it out, prepared the playlist, gassed up the car, and made the necessary reservations. You pull in to pick them up and it starts…They always have extra baggage as they hop into the passenger seat, excited about the trip. Not too much later, they are whining about the traffic, explaining a faster route, and changing the playlist to one they have prepared. Very quickly, the passenger seat isn’t good enough. They want to drive from their own seat. “Watch out!” “How fast are you going?” “Isn’t this the passing lane?” “Oops, that was a yellow light!” You eventually get to your destination, but the journey’s been arduous and downright unpleasant.You are on the road trip called life. It is God’s gift to you. He’s prepared your journey, mapping it out with only you in mind. It’s the trip of a lifetime, so get comfortable in the passenger’s seat and let Him drive. Enjoy the ride with Him!
Thank God for His meticulously planned and prepared road trip for your life’s journey!
Ask the Lord to prepare your heart for the many detours and destinations He may have in mind for you.
