If you’ve ever driven anywhere with GPS, you already understand faith in motion. Once you enter the destination, you stop questioning the route and simply follow the voice. You don’t argue with every turn or worry about what the next driver is doing. You trust that you’ll arrive.

I’ll admit, my GPS is my best friend on the road. Even when I’m heading somewhere familiar, I still open Waze. (Don’t judge me. I like to know where the hiding Po-Pos are. Pray for me. 😂) But what I’ve realized is this: I never argue with Waze. I just follow.

And that’s the same way God wants us to follow His lead.

We all experience moments when clarity feels out of reach. The vision is still there, but the visibility is low. That’s when trust does its best work. So what do you do when you can’t see the way?

Just trust!

Stay aligned with the One who sees it all. Trust that His timing and direction are still accurate, even when your view isn’t.

As you lead teams, make decisions, or navigate transitions, resist the urge to overanalyze every turn. You don’t need all the information to stay in motion. You just need to keep trusting the One guiding you.

The same Holy Spirit who mapped out your purpose is the One managing your route. He knows the coordinates, the timing, and the best path forward, even when you can’t see it.

Take your hands off the wheel of control. Keep your heart steady and your focus forward. You’re already on the way, and what’s waiting ahead is worth the trust it takes to get there.
