Rerouting…

 For most of us, routine is customary. We typically travel up and down familiar roads to get to those places we know (home, work, church…the mall). We are creatures of habit. For the most part we do what we know.  We don’t consult maps, inquire of others, or solicit the help of navigation systems to get to places we know.  It is not very often that we will attempt to find a new way because the way we go works for us. We’re comfortable, confident, and carefree when we peruse roads previously traveled because what we know prepares us for what to expect, it preferences the set pattern, and prerequisites how to navigate the road based upon what we gathered when we traveled it before. 

So what if you were on a road you traveled before and you heard the navigation system say “Rerouting” what will be your response?  Would you stay on the familiar path of what you’ve experienced up until this point…trusting in what you think you know about where you’re going?  How willing would you be to follow the in the present moment directions of how to get to your desired destination? Could the navigation system take you a new way? Expose you to a different route to your destination? Can you trust beyond what you know?  Is experience our best teacher or expectation the best tutorial on life and love?

 What if our expectation of life and love allowed God the opportunity to reroute our familiar experiences? What if the new route would right the wrongs of yesterday and heal the wounds of old?  What if God the ultimate Navigator decided it was time to reroute the manner in which you are traveling?  Can you hear the navigational prompt “Rerouting” interrupting your normal, doing away with your routine and expecting you to adhere to this new direction for your life and love?  Same destination all roads leading to life and love in Him…void of what you know, have experienced, remember from before. 

God wants to gift you beyond the familiar he desires to break the monotony of your routine and experience. Will you confer your right to know and trust His heart to give you all His Word promises? Your thoughts are not His thoughts…nor your way His…so can you shut down your thinking and way to allow Him navigational authority?  If you are willing and obedient you will benefit, be blessed, and become one with the land God has deemed as your there. He wants to give you His hearts unveil toward you. 

SSssh quiet all the emotional turbulence attached to change…trust God beyond your experience… follow the directions being given in the present… because Heaven is alerting us to this season when God is Rerouting our mindsets, mannerisms, and maneuverings so we can arrive at our destination whole in the center of will.  Rerouting prerequisites living and loving in His likeness because it’s the turning away from how we see it, want it, think it should be, want to make it be based upon what we know in exchange for All He knows concerning our expected ends and His perfected will for our lives. May this be the turn that ushers us into fruition and promise…I’m praying that we will surrender successfully as we make the turn because in this season God is Rerouting~AntTBri
