The Holy Spirit is not like the GPS System we ignore while driving to our next destination. He is the Driver and we are the passenger. He drives where He pleases at the rate of speed He chooses. But the question is will we give Him the keys and trust He will take us where we need to go and get us there on time? Or will we complain the as we go on this trip called life, continually asking "are we there yet", and telling the Holy Spirit, "You are going the wrong way?"

"All aboard"
Proverbs 3:5-8
(v5)
God requires our entire dependence and unyielding trust be in Him. His Word is our assurance that whatever He speaks, promises or proclaims to us in our lives will always come to pass (Isaiah 55:11). But to do this we must not rely on our understanding of the situation and the circumstances that surround it.
(v5)
So we humble ourselves to the very Will and Way of God. Knowing that in His proper time He will bring His Will to pass in our lives. Thus we abandon our cares, worries, and anxieties because we are in His care now (1 Peter 5:6)
(v6)
So we acknowledge publicly and privately that the Lord is leading us and guiding us. When questioned by others, pressured to change course, or when problems bloom we still submit to God's Will. We are steadfast in our faith knowing that Lord is still guiding through the Light of His Word (Psalm 119:105), so we meditate on His Word day and night so that we are careful to follow His direction(Psalm 119:9-10).
(v7-v8)
And it is in this entire process that we see our wisdom as foolishness and God's as true genius. Our respect and awe of the Lord grows while our desire for evil dies. Because our lives have been transformed and our minds renewed, so others can see what God's perfect and acceptable will looks like (Romans 12:2). And now we gladly present our lives as living sacrifices (Romans 12:1) because in Him we are refreshed and renewed
Friends I implore you to follow God's direction like a train does a track, and trust the conductor He knows where He is leading you. Stay focused you can do this.
