What drives your life?
Did you ever ask someone for directions only to end up still lost? I think we sometimes do the same things in our lives. We often what to find what direction we’re headed in life and forget to take some time to sit back and just ask God. (Try and find a few minutes each day to just ask God to give you the guidance…I know it sounds easy but we need to really take those “spiritual breaks” so we can keep ourselves headed in the right direction).
Warren, (on pages 27-34) gives us some insight on the traffic problems ahead and what happens when we let God take over…
Stay away from:
guilt, resentment, anger, fear, materialism and earthly approval…
guilt, resentment, anger, fear, materialism and earthly approval…
If you let God be your Spiritual GPS your journey will led you to:
meaning, hope, simplicity, focus, motivation and a great walk with God in eternity…
meaning, hope, simplicity, focus, motivation and a great walk with God in eternity…
As you take a “spiritual break” let go of everything for a few moments and think about the question on page 35, “What would my family and friends say is the driving force of my life? What do I want it to be?” …and then turn those things over to God and let God take the wheel.

Day 3 and this post struck me because I've been particularly driven lately, but I realized this weekend that I wasn't sure what was driving me so quickly. I was reminded to take a step back and really think about what was driving me -- to overwork, to get to the next thing on my to do list -- rather than taking a step back. Knowing God is guiding the drive, I feel more relaxed about the direction I'm headed. --Kate L.
I agree Kate. Sometimes I think we all need to take a break and really let God take over...its not easy...but I know when I let it happen things seem to come together. (...but I always have to keep reminding myself to Let go and Let God).
