Where are YOU Headed?

In order to arrive at one's destination, there are two critical factors. First, an individual needs to decide where they want to go. But that is not enough. There is a second critical factor, and that is direction. Just knowing where you want to go is not enough to get you there. You must choose to follow the proper directions to get there. I would encourage each of us to decide where it is we want to go. Do we have a Life Plan that covers our spiritual journey, family, health, finances, education, profession -- in fact, every dimension of life. This is important for every single person, regardless of age. If you have never thought through a Life Plan, HERE is a good post to help you with that process. Everyone of us needs to work this through, and if we are married, we need to work through some of these areas with our spouse.

But a Life Plan is not enough. We also need to ask the question, when faced with decisions, "where is this decision going to lead?" "Where will this decision take me?" Every decision we make in life moves us in one direction or another.

We see this truth played out around us on a regular basis. People have arrived at places they did not want to be because of decisions (choices) which they have made. We have arrived at places we did not want to be because of choices which we have made. May God grant us His grace to understand that every decision we make is taking us someplace.
