I'd be lost without GPS

Sometimes, I have found myself in an area that I am completely unfamiliar with, and so is my GPS. Ever been there? Yeah, that GPS will take you to an open field that is supposed to be the home of your high school friend. You later find out that your GPS needs a little updating.

There have been other times, however, that the GPS has not only taken me to my destination but has also saved me time, tolls, and turmoil. Plus, if I find myself in an unfamiliar place, the GPS is kind enough to let me know where lodging and food can be acquired. Though, sometimes, without updates, the GPS can lead me to where a restaurant used to be.

Today's word is just a little acronym I've seen and a thought that I have to go with it: GPS - GOD'S Plan of Salvation - we'd be lost without it!

If you think you would be lost without the GPS in your car or on your smart phone, just imagine how lost we would be without GOD'S GPS. Yeah, without our little GPS, we might get lost or not find lodging or food. Without GOD'S GPS, we would be eternally lost, destined to spend eternity separated from GOD. So, what is GOD'S GPS - GOD'S Plan of Salvation? I am glad you asked...

Romans 10:9, from the Holman Christian Standard Bible reads, "If you confess with your mouth, 'JESUS is LORD,' and believe in your heart that GOD raised Him from the dead, you will be saved." Pretty simple, huh? If you believe in your heart and confess with your mouth you will be saved, that simple.

GOD'S Plan of Salvation is not overbearing or cumbersome or tedious. It is simply believing in His sacrifice and accepting His gift of eternal life. GPS - GOD'S Plan of Salvation - we'd be lost without it!

Be Blessed,
