Life is a Highway.....

Even with a GPS any trip into downtown Atlanta requires at least ONE re-route, ONE U-turn. 

I am not always good at following the directions and inevitably I will see it blinking,

"Rerouting" and "make a U-turn". If I somehow once again miss THAT turn it ONCE AGAIN re-calculates and says, "Rerouting. Make a U-turn" It will reroute my course no matter how many times I miss the mark. Because my DESTINATION is *LOCKED* in. I know where I'm headed. 
But am I willing to follow the directions to get there? 
And how LONG will it take me to get there? 

It's already mapped out the course. I can look for alternate routes or choose whether or not I will follow the directions.

....as long as I'm willing to follow the directions and pay attention and listen ......................I will get to where I am headed. 

It's a lot like GRACE. 

As long as you're ready to listen. As soon as you're ready to surrender

......HE will say, "My Grace will lead you all the way....."
