Cruise Control

Previously, I talked about the 3 lanes of life I drive in the most and breaking them down.

Lane 1 is FAITH.

I don't question it, I don't wonder about it, I don't even think about it most of the time. I am so confident in that lane that sometimes I think its on cruise control, which is not good!

Being on cruise control in any lane means that it isn't being driven on safely. Getting from point A to Point B is not always all you need from this lane.  What about the things in the middle that are being missed? Are you avoiding the pot holes and just driving through them hoping they don't damage things too much.   Cruise control allows your mind to wonder onto other less important things instead of staying focused on the job at hand.

I am not sure when I allowed my faith to go on auto pilot but I don't intend for it to stay there!  So, what can i do today to get this lane of life back where it needs to be? Where does it need  to be?

1. It needs to be the driving force behind my life.
2. I need to be the co-pilot while Christ is my pilot. -Often I forget that I do not need to be in control, that Christ does.
3. My relationship with Christ needs to be the number one priority in my life, before kids, marriage, football, anything.  Therefore, I need to find this family a church home asap! I need to implement a bible study for me, for my spouse and i and for our family, asap!

No more cruise control, no more trying to drive this lane without my pilot!
