Hello ,
In January 2013, Sabine Moreau, a 67-year-old Belgian woman, was driving to pick up a friend in Brussels, about 90 miles from her home. But based on the faulty directions she got from her GPS, she drove all the way to Croatia-nearly
1,000 miles away.
The journey took the woman across five international borders. She stopped several times to get gas and take naps, but she kept pressing onward until she hit Zagreb, the capital of Croatia.
After a few days her son was worried about her so called the police, who tracked her down by following her bank statements. She told a Belgian reporter, "I was distracted, so I kept going. I saw all kinds of signs, first in French, then in German, and finally in Croatian, but I continued driving because I was distracted. When I passed Zagreb, I told myself I should turn around."*
What does it finally take for a person to see that they are headed in the wrong direction spiritually? For myself, it literally took years of wrong turns, and miles of heading in the wrong direction before I finally knew that I couldn't go on.
I've heard it said that the reason we hit "rock bottom," is so that we can see "The Rock" at the bottom. If our life GPS is taking us AWAY from our Creator, perhaps it's time to re-program it, or get rid of it entirely.
Have a great day and God bless!
