Where are you now?

At our small group bible study last night we had a very interesting point brought to our attention. God is like your father who, if you are lost in traffic and you call him, will give you directions to set you on your given path again. But… he will first ask you “where are you now?” If you don’t know where you are, if you are stuck at the side of the road with no landmarks, how can your father give you directions? We have to be truthful with ourselves and not make excuses about our situations, etc. We have to figure out where we are before our father can set us on the right path again. Otherwise, how will we make it to our destination? We are a lot like the man who refuses to ask for directions when he is lost and ends up becoming very frustrated and wasting a lot of time along the way. This man not only frustrates himself but the people who are with him. So the question is, are we being truthful and do we know where we are? John 8:32 says, “Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
