Do you wonder what’s the right direction to take?
Are life’s conflicting signals confusing you?
Have you lost your spiritual GPS?
Recently, a vivid dream neatly taught me what to do next–
but like the wise fisherman, it wasn’t going to just hand me the tasty fish…
“The Dream Scene:
I’m an African-American man, with six or seven friends surrounding one pleasant but stressed-looking man in his late twenties. Our friend faces a difficult decision.
He has to make really tough choices NOW:
Does he take a big risk for the job & career he really wants? There’s no guarantee he’ll succeed. Failure would prove costly.
Does he marry the pretty young lady standing near him, who’s sweetly stressing him for a ring? We can tell he cares about her, but she’s “not quite the one”. We sense he’d be bending to make her happy–
or avoid her displeasure.
Proverbial buckets of sweat begin to brim on his forehead. We silently give him time for his choice. The young lady gives him a bitty tweak of a smile that says, “You’d better choose me.”
The poor guy’s about to spring a leak, melt down like a reactor or run for the hills, we can’t tell which.
On an inspiration I ask, “Do you want to know how to choose?”
He looks at me with hope & incredulity, like a drowning man would who’s asked if he prefers a life preserver or not.
“You have to take the high road,” I tell him.
“How do I find it?”
Everybody looks at me as if to say, “This had better be good now you’ve opened your mouth Scott!”
These words tumble out:
“Ask.”
“The High-Way is the drive-way God intends you to drive your life upon.”
I repeat this slowly, once, then twice. Everybody’s so in sync with this saying, they smile & nod their heads in agreement.
A fourth time I state this truth, everybody spontaneously recites it with me:
“The High-Way is the drive-way God intends you to drive your life upon.”
A grin of relief breaks through the very tense cloud on our friend’s face.
He understands:
He can get his answer–
by asking his Higher Guidance System.
Anything else would be muddled, half-blind, possibly manipulative guidance.
But his Higher Guidance–
his spiritual GPS–
won’t give him the easy route–
it will give him the BEST route from the perspective of Wisdom.
He has to be willing to lift up his eyes, his energies and his intentions.
Yes, his spiritual GPS will guide him to the High-Way that’s the drive-way God INTENDS him to drive his life upon.
He just has to FOLLOW IT.
The Dream ends with us feeling satisfied, almost giddily happy.”
So remember my friend, your Spiritual GPS is just waiting for you to check–
& keep recalibrating as needed along the High-Way of your life!
Ask me for help if you like.
Peace & Happiness to you,
