GPS1what God has planned for those who love him; we cannot begin to imagine 1 Cor. 2:9a33

3My story I had no idea but I knew change was neededAn atheist for 36 years I didnt trust God or anyoneSo, I challenged God to prove himselfBelieve and be amazed for when Gods promises are finally fulfilled in your life, Wow!" Luke 1:45My 20-year journey on lifes highway was possible only with the guidance of a personal savior, JesusThis journey God took me was over lifes highway and into or at least closer to the promised-land44

GPS: Guidance of a Personal Savior(0) Faith (didnt start out that way)There were problems but(1) Aim for the dreamMost do not know (2) Believe in GodAnd in the unknown (3) Confess to possess More than talk is required55

Just do it!(4) Delight in the Lord; Design, devotion, discipline(5) Express yourself in love;Attitude, Behavior, Communication(6) Forgive as God forgives; Forgive others so you can be forgiven(7) Give as you receive throughout lifeWhen ready, the HS sends us. 66

The Way Christian biblical meditationIs not mindless (empty your mind of all thought) Is reflective thinking so that Your Word I hid in my heart so as not to sin against you" (Psalm 119:11). Read the verse repeatedlyThink on the verse continuallySpeak it aloud and talk to othersApply it to your life in practical waysTeach it and post the Word around the home

Why and What to TeachTeach it to your children, talk about it when sitting in your house, as you walk along, and when you lie down and rise up" (Deut 6:7)We teach "what is true, honest, just, pure, lovely, of good report; anything of virtue and praise we think upon these" (Philippians 4:8)Examine problem areas in your own lifeWhat does Scripture say to do?Penalty of disobedienceBenefit of obedience88

0. Thought of todayProblem: Selfishness is seeking for our self and not that for JesusScripture: Who sees his brother in need and does not have compassion, how does the love of God dwell in him? (1John 3:17)Solution: Do for others for as you give you receive good measure, pressed down, shaken together, overflowing Disobey: Hebrews 12:5-6, do not despise the reprimand of the Lord, nor be discouraged when rebuked; The Strawberry Patch.docxApplication99

0. Thought of todayThe Storm of Correction enters our lives when we do not obey God (See Act 27:42-44). Jonah knew about these. A storm arose and tossed him overboard where he was swallowed by a fish for rebelling against the Lord (Jon_1:10). Not all storms in life are correction (in this world we will have troubles Jesus warned) yet, sometimes the Lord sends a storm to get us on track again.Obey: When we obey we do not have Gods correction but his blessings and do you not know the difference between a correction and a blessing!Part 21010

Hope: a foundation of faith11
