====================
What happens when you can’t trust your GPS? Apple computers a few months back had some serious problems with their GPS map application and lots of people, who trusted their system, were lead very wrong. Two times I remember typing in an address on two separate trips, then following the GPS VOICE’s instructions, and literally driving in circles over and over again.
Now, at a certain point you have to ask how many times would Kaʻala drive in circles before he realizes something is amiss?? We now know that it takes at least 3–5 times before Kaʻala figures out something is wrong!
Have you ever been lost? Really lost? Do you remember the feelings, the stress, the anxiety? Even helplessness.
I want to share with you one practical, directional truth that will make sure you never get lost again.
And don’t just brush this off, “yeah, yeah, yeah…” Lots of people I interact with are wandering, direction-less, lost, without even knowing it.
Webster’s dictionary defines lost as
unable to be found
Thanks Webster! Or,
not knowing where you are or how to get to where you want to go
I’m going to add “not even knowing where you should go.”
See if you recognize this story:
“There was a man who had two sons. The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.”(Luke 15:11 –12)
The younger son took all his possessions, took off, and “squandered his wealth on wild living.” He spent his entire inheritance on this wild living and had to get a job feeding pigs. It got so bad for him that he was looking at stealing the pig food to just survive.
He’s stressing, anxious, not sure where his next meal is coming from, no money. He’s not month to month here he’s day to day. He’s not knowing how to and not knowing where to go. This is lost.
The bible says:
“We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way;” (Isaiah 53:6)
When you are turned away from God and are following your own way, that’s lost. This is not just a message of salvation. You can have this “lost” feeling contemplating a new job or career change. You can have this “lost” feeling looking at the bills you have to pay spread out on the table.
This younger son, the “Prodigal Son” recognized “lost” and turned back to his Father. He had a whole speech prepared
“The son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’
But when he gives the speech his father ignores it and says:
”'Let’s have a feast and celebrate. For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’“(Luke 15:21 –24)
When you’re feeling anxious, not sure how or where you should be, lost, remember this one thing: No matter how far away we go our Father’s house is always open.
When you know this you will never be lost again.
