Using your GPS

Feeling lost?

I told you
That we could fly
'Cause we all have wings
But some of us don't know why
~ INXS ~

I heard this song yesterday and these few lines really struck me. Perhaps because I spent so many years wondering why I had wings to fly, to soar, to live out the expression of my Soul.

I know that’s not what this particular song is about, however that is how these lyrics hit my heart.

It’s difficult wandering around searching for existential meaning, feeling lost in the dessert of desire with no real direction. I was going everywhere and nowhere.

It’s wonderful when you begin to have a path, a roadmap. Although I don’t necessarily need to know every turn and every step, I can trust the general direction. I can trust that I have a GPS (God Positioning System) to show me the next move.

I trust that my GPS knows the entire journey, and I only need to focus on the next right move. And if I happen to take a wrong turn, I will be guided back onto the right path, or an alternate route will be calculated.

Perhaps I will explore new possibilities I never would have imagined while taking a wrong turn.
