North Star

Here’s a thought….

For centuries Explorers, Travelers and Sailors have used the North Star to navigate uncharted areas because its placement in the night sky is consistent and unchanging. To find your way in the darkness, you don’t need sophisticated instruments. Just find the star that sits by itself, across from the cup of the Big Dipper.

An ancient prophet once said, “I am the Lord, and I do not change” (Malachi 3:6 NLT). Because God is consistent and unchanging, he is the perfect “guiding star” to show us the way through life’s wilderness. A cloud covered sky can hinder us from clearing seeing the North Star and from our perspective it may seem that it is gone. Equally, the world has a way of clouding our vision and would have us believe that God has abandoned us. Dispite our view of the night sky, the North Star and our Heavenly Father are there longing to guide us. Unfortunately, many people today know how to find the North Star, but they don’t know how to find God.

Our mission at Compass Wilderness is to point people in the right direction, to show them how to find their spiritual “North Star”. And our staff has been trained in the critical steps necessary to help them find their way.
