#soap # 2 Thessalonians 03 ## Title: Where Is God Leading Us? ## Scripture: (2 Thessalonians 3:5) “Now may the Lord direct your hearts toward the love of God and the endurance of Christ.” (NET) ## Observation: With modern technology, it’s possible to see where someone is going by using your phone to pull up GPS. What’s more convenient is most modern cars have the GPS either built in or connects to your phone. This way, you can see where someone is going as they are guided by GPS. Because of this, I can’t stand riding with someone and having no idea where we are going. This is also probably because I like to drive. Many times we can feel this way about life. Where are we going? Why did life turn this way or that way? If God is in control of my life, did He miss a turn somewhere? Where is He heading? God’s Word says He is leading us into a full understanding and expression of His love. He is also leading us to have patient endurance that comes from communion with Christ. This is beautiful. So, whenever we encounter anything today we realize God hasn’t taken a wrong turn. He is leading us toward knowing Him more. ## Application: Trust all the turns God makes today. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for leading us so well.
