Podcasts about recalculating

God has promised He has good plans for you (Jeremiah 29:11), but wouldn’t it be nice if He included turn-by-turn directions? I mean REALLY nice. Not some vague “trust Me” and “walk by faith” business. I want GPS. I want step-by-step instructions complete with an arrival time and the occasional heavenly notification saying, “There’s a problem ahead. I’ve found a better route.” And if we’re being really honest, I’d also like Him to show me where all the potholes are, who I should avoid, and whether or not this particular problem could perhaps be skipped altogether. Is that too much to ask? I’ve learned there are two kinds of travelers in this world. First, there’s the planner. I present to you my husband as Exhibit A. He plugs in his destination, then immediately zooms out to study the entire route. He knows which highways he’ll take, approximately where he’ll stop, and could probably tell you which side of town he’ll be approaching from. Then he zooms in to study the intersections and lane changes. After reviewing the route for a solid five minutes, he calmly begins driving without the voice prompts because he has become one with the GPS. Then there’s the other traveler. We’ll call this one the follower. I present to you…me. Actually, I don’t even qualify as Exhibit B. Let’s call me Exhibit L. L for Lost. Perpetually lost. I don’t know where I am, I don’t know where I’m going, but strangely, I’m never really stressed about it. Here’s how I roll. I plug in a destination. Let’s say the TJ Maxx. I don’t really care which TJ Maxx. Any one will do. I don’t stop to consider which side of town it’s on or how many toll roads are involved. If the GPS lady picks one, I trust her judgment entirely. Then I do something that absolutely horrifies my husband. I just press START. That’s it. No studying. No planning. No zooming in or zooming out. We’re just going. Then I pull out of the parking lot in whatever direction seems easiest while my GPS gets her bearings. Is it the correct direction? Typically, no. Is it even remotely helpful? Also no. But soon enough, that sweet little lady comes through my speakers and says, “Make a U-turn.” Yo-kay! Let me whip this baby around and let’s get to the TJ Maxx. Friends, which traveler are you? Here’s what I know. Whichever one you are, you’re convinced you’re right and the other one makes absolutely no sense. And isn’t that exactly how we approach our lives with God? Some of us want the five-year plan. We want the destination, the route, and every major intersection highlighted before we’ll take the first step. Others of us are saying, “Jesus, if you’ll just show me what to do before lunch, we’re making progress.” But regardless of which traveler you are, we’re all asking the same question. What’s the way? Jesus answered that question in John 14:6 when He said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” Notice He didn’t say, “I’ll SHOW you the way.” He said, “I AM the way.” And I wonder if we’ve missed just how profound that is. Jesus isn’t simply giving directions to God’s good plans for your life. Jesus IS God’s good plan for your life. He’s not merely the GPS helping you arrive at your destination. He is both the Guide and the Destination. We keep asking God, “Show me where we’re going!” And He’s saying, “I’m right here.” Honey, if you know Jesus, then you know the way because HE IS THE WAY. He’s the way you’re going to survive this heartbreak. He’s the way you’re going to make it through this diagnosis. He’s the way you’re going to overcome this addiction. He’s the way you’re going to begin again after failure. And He accounts for all the wrong turns. Have you ever noticed your GPS doesn’t throw a fit when you miss your turn? It doesn’t sigh dramatically and announce, “Well, that’s it! You’ve ruined everything! You’ll never make it now!” No! It simply says, “Recalculating.” Friend, can I tell you something? God has been recalculating your life since the day you were born. You haven’t surprised Him once. That divorce didn’t surprise Him. That addiction didn’t surprise Him. That diagnosis didn’t surprise Him. That bad decision didn’t surprise Him. He’s never once looked at your life and said, “Well, I certainly didn’t see THAT coming.” While we’ve changed directions, Jesus NEVER has. Romans 8:28 is still true. God is still working ALL things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. He doesn’t run out of routes to redeem your story. He allows U-turns. And when you’re convinced you’ve gone too far in the wrong direction, He simply whispers, “Recalculating.” You don’t need to know the whole way. You simply need to know the One who is the way. ——————- But Jesus doesn’t stop there. He’s not only the way, He’s the truth. Isn’t it funny that we’ll trust a complete stranger with an Australian accent to get us across town, but we struggle to trust Jesus with our eternity? We trust Siri. We trust Google Maps. We trust Waze. But when Jesus says, “I’ve got another route for you,” suddenly we’re skeptical. Why? Because the route doesn’t look true. The route to freedom looks like surrender. The route to strength looks like weakness. The route to greatness looks like serving. The route to life looks like dying to ourselves. The truth is, God’s truth rarely looks like the world’s truth. Friend, there are voices giving you directions every single day. Social media has directions for your life. Your fears have directions for your life. Your past has directions for your life. Your feelings have directions for your life. Your wounds have directions for your life. And Satan most certainly has directions for your life. The question isn’t whether you’re listening to a voice. The question is WHICH VOICE is leading you? Jesus says you’re chosen. The enemy says you’re forgotten. Jesus says you’re forgiven. The enemy says you’re disqualified. Jesus says you’re being made new. The enemy says you’ll never change. Jesus says you’re more than a conqueror. The enemy says you’ve already lost. Honey, somebody is lying. And Jesus has never lied. Know the truth so well that every lie immediately sounds like the wrong voice giving wrong directions. ________________ Finally, Jesus says, “I am the life.” Notice He didn’t say, “I’ll GIVE you a life.” He said, “I AM the life.” We spend so much of our lives chasing life. We think life is found in losing the weight. In getting married. In having the baby. In making more money. In retiring someday. In getting the promotion. In taking the trip. In finding the relationship. And so we keep moving the finish line. “I’ll finally be happy when…” Except when we get there, we simply create another “when.” Jesus says, “No sweetheart, LIFE isn’t found there. It’s found here. It’s found in Me.” Life isn’t waiting for you 40 pounds from now. Life isn’t waiting for you after the divorce is finalized. Life isn’t waiting for your prodigal to come home. Life isn’t waiting for your circumstances to improve. Life is available to you right here, right now, because Jesus is here right now. Stop putting your life on layaway. Stop waiting to start living someday. Stop surviving until circumstances improve. Jesus didn’t come so you could merely exist. He came that you may have life and have it abundantly, to the full, overflowing, BIG! (John 10:10). ————– So maybe you’ve been asking the wrong question. You’ve been asking WHERE when Jesus has been saying WHO. Where am I going? To Jesus. How am I going to make it? With Jesus. What should I believe? Jesus. What was I created for? Jesus. What’s God’s plan for my life? Jesus. We’ve been asking God for directions while He’s been offering us a relationship. My sister, Jesus isn’t merely showing us the way to some future destination. He IS the destination. He is the way. He is the truth. He is the life. So let’s get going. Just press START. Will there be wrong turns? Absolutely. Will there be delays? Probably. Will there be seasons when you have absolutely no idea where He’s leading you? Most certainly. Will there be times you find yourself sitting on the side of the road wondering what in the world God is doing? Oh, girl. Without a doubt. But here’s what I know after all these years of following Jesus—I have never once regretted trusting Him with the route. I have regretted my own directions a thousand times. I have regretted my detours. I have regretted my delays. I have regretted grabbing the wheel and trying to become my own GPS. But I have never regretted following Jesus. So where will He take us? I don’t know. But I know who will be walking beside me every single step of the way. And really, that’s enough. Quit worrying so much about where you’re going and pay attention to Who you’re going with. Follow Jesus. Trust the next instruction He gives you. Because when Jesus is both your Guide and your destination, you can never truly be lost. He is the way. He is the truth. He is the life. And He’s really, really good at recalculating. We’ve changed directions a thousand times. He never has.

What if life isn't a problem to solve—but a journey to experience? In this solo episode of Circle Up & Get REAL, Jodee reflects on an upcoming biking adventure through Montana and discovers that planning a road trip has a surprising way of illuminating life itself. Through stories about maps, GPS systems, bike trails, and mountain roads, she explores why we often expect life to be easier than it was ever meant to be. The journey reminds us that hills, valleys, storms, detours, and unexpected companions aren't signs we've gone off course—they're part of the adventure. Jodee shares why agency isn't about controlling every circumstance but about choosing how we respond to the conditions we encounter. She introduces the powerful distinction between an external GPS that helps us navigate and an internal compass—our values, intuition, instinct, and discernment—that helps us determine our True North. Along the way, she explores: Why expectations often create unnecessary suffering What a GPS can teach us about self-compassion ("Recalculating...") The two questions every journey requires: Where am I? and Where do I want to go? Why mentors and trail guides can show us where they've been—but cannot walk our path for us The meaning of coddiwomple: traveling purposefully toward a destination that isn't yet completely clear How curiosity, courage, and discernment help us navigate uncertainty Whether you're standing at a crossroads, questioning your direction, or simply trying to enjoy the scenery a little more, this episode offers an invitation to trust both the map and the compass—and to remember that becoming may matter even more than arriving. Key Takeaway: Life isn't about avoiding wrong turns. It's about learning to recalculate with curiosity instead of judgment and having the courage to continue the journey. Quote from the Episode "It's never what happens to you. It's who you become in the process." Reflection Questions What expectations am I carrying that may be making my journey harder than it needs to be? Where am I today—not where I wish I were? Where do I truly want to go? What does my inner compass tell me that no GPS can? If I took one courageous step without knowing the entire path, what might become possible?

There is no shortage of stories reminding us of one very important fact about the modern Left:They are incredibly committed to learning absolutely nothing.It's almost impressive. At this point, refusing to learn has become a core competency. If there were a college degree in “Ignoring Reality While Demanding Reality Apologize,” half of Washington would graduate with honors.And the bill for that stubbornness is coming due.A new national survey from I&I/TIPP, a pollster with a strong track record of accurately projecting presidential election outcomes, shows President Donald Trump's standing improving heading into July. The interesting part isn't just Trump's numbers. It's where the movement is happening.Republicans are consolidating. Independents are moving. And Democrats?Well, let's just say the political weather forecast is calling for more internal thunderstorms.The phrase used in the report was that “Democratic views worsened.”That is one of those polite phrases you see in political reporting. It's like saying a restaurant's food was “interesting” when everyone at the table is quietly reaching for the antacid.Democrats aren't just having a bad week. They're having the kind of identity crisis where the GPS says, “Recalculating,” but even the GPS sounds exhausted.And this is the part that should concern Democrats: they still seem to think the problem is messaging.No.The problem is that voters are looking around and saying, “Wait a minute. The people telling us how the world works don't seem to have noticed the world.”That's a dangerous place for any political party.Because voters can forgive mistakes. They can forgive bad ideas. They can even forgive politicians being politicians.But voters do not like being treated like they're too stupid to notice what's happening.And Democrats are finding out that voters have eyes.They see the economy. They see public safety. They see immigration. They see government institutions that have spent years telling them one thing while reality keeps filing complaints.Speaking of reality, we have to talk about some of the issues where the Left expected the public to stay permanently angry.Remember when enforcing immigration laws was supposed to be political poison?Apparently not.We were told that any serious enforcement of immigration laws would create some kind of national uprising. But as enforcement ramps up, the reaction from many Americans seems less like outrage and more like, “Wait, you mean the government is actually enforcing the law?”Imagine that.It turns out there are people who believe a country should know who is entering it. Wild concept. Somewhere a bureaucrat just dropped his coffee because he heard someone say the word “border” without immediately adding a 47-page disclaimer.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

By Andrew Lausted - This message uses a family geocaching adventure to illustrate the Christian journey toward the Kingdom of God, explo ring three key lessons: 1. One Way 2. Recalculating 3. Faithful to the End

Psalm 95 calls us to worship God, to remember who He is and who we are. This is also a warning to recalculate to ensure our hearts stay tender, our lives follow His path and our posture remain bowed in humbleness to our Shepherd and King.

Steve Graham, from Boston area, Massachusetts, USA

 When fear says you're lost, God says recalculating. A message of hope, courage, and trust for anyone facing criticism, anxiety, or failure.

It wasn't just a change of address; it was a search for clarity, for a "margarita-environment" that truly made sense. And believe me, your windows have everything to do with it.THE A-HA MOMENTMany people think blinds and shades are just for blocking the sun. But the truth is, they're an essential part of your "perfect margarita." They control light, privacy, thermal comfort, and ultimately, they shape how you live and work in your own space.We're going to dive into how a business decision turned into a life lesson about priorities, the impact of your environment, and why investing in the quality of your view (literally and metaphorically) is one of the best deals you can make. If you're tired of your current "margarita" or feeling like life needs a "recalculation," stick with me, and I'll show you how to find your place in the sun — with style and purpose.THE BREAKDOWNThe Big Shift: Why leaving Boston for Tampa wasn't just about geography, but a quest for "the better margarita" in life and business.More Than Just Windows: How custom window solutions can transform a house into a home that reflects who you are and what you seek.The Clarity Factor: Understand why the right light and tailored privacy are crucial for your well-being and productivity.KEY TAKEAWAYS My take on how small upgrades can make a massive difference in your daily life."Recalculating...": The art of pivoting when life throws you a curveball and how to turn unexpected detours into opportunities.Hit play and let's get into this story!

Religion is man's attempt to do enough to make themselves acceptable to God. The grace of the gospel reveals something different ... and that is ... God did everything necessary to draw us near to Him. It's wrapped inside an eternal inheritance—guaranteed in Jesus Christ. When feeling overwhelmed by condemnation, know that you will never be able to "do enough" to position yourself to be right with God. Our right standing is based on what Jesus did as the mediator between us and God. Paul put it this way: "For what the law could not do in that it was weak through the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh." When the fleshly GPS tries to take you to a dead-end street of *doing* in order to get a response from God, change direction by simply saying, "God did." --Available on Amazon - "Clash of The Covenants: Escaping Religious Bondage Through the Grace Guarantee" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0713ZSKY7

Life is like a GPS-Recalculating Your Way to Successhttps://lifemotivationdaily.blogspot.com/

Brian Skrobonja breaks down the repeal of the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO).  He covers how retirees can strategically use their lump sum to create long-term financial stability, the impact of the repeal on spousal and survivor benefits, and the broader financial strain on the Social Security system.  Tune in to hear essential insights into how to adapt your financial strategy and take full advantage of this game-changing reform. Brian starts by explaining why the repeal of the WEP and the GPO is a big deal for retirees. A good example of how this repeal affects retirees is higher Social Security benefits--retirees can now reduce reliance on personal savings and investment withdrawals. Brian talks about the impact on spousal and survivor benefits. The repeal eliminates the harsh reductions that often left surviving spouses with little to no income. Brian explains why retirees need a strategy for their lump sum payments. Instead of spending it impulsively, consider reinvesting in assets that create long-term financial security. How the repeal changes retirement planning for government workers. Formerly penalized for having a pension, they can now receive full Social Security benefits without reductions. Brian highlights why this repeal adds financial strain to the Social Security system. The Congressional Budget Office projects billions in additional costs, worsening the program's long-term stability. Brian reveals the biggest challenge Social Security now faces. Recalculating benefits for millions of retirees while managing retroactive payments creates an administrative nightmare for the Social Security office. Brian highlights the fairness issue with this change. Government employees with brief private-sector work history may now receive benefits exceeding lifelong private-sector workers with similar earnings. How younger workers may bear the financial burden of this repeal. Without a payroll tax increase, the long-term cost shifts onto the next generation of retirees. Understand how to make the most of this new opportunity. With higher benefits, retirees should rethink their tax strategy, pension withdrawals, and investment plans. Brian shares the best way to maximize Social Security benefits. Coordinating Social Security payments with pension income, investment distributions, and annuities can optimize cash flow for you in retirement. Brian explains the tax implications of higher Social Security benefits and how increased payments could push retirees into higher tax brackets. According to Brian, this change creates new financial planning opportunities. Retirees can explore strategies like Roth conversions or delaying withdrawals to reduce tax burdens. Brian explains how ignoring these changes could cost you and potentially derail your retirement. The repeal is a game changer and failing to adapt your financial strategy means missing out on valuable benefits or paying more in taxes.      Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com SkrobonjaFinancial.com SkrobonjaWealth.com BUILDbanking.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify     References for this episode: https://www.nea.org/resource-library/faq-social-security-fairness-act#:~:text=Impacted%20individuals%20will%20see%20an%20estimated%20average%20increase%20of%20%24360,vary%20based%20on%20employment%20history https://hayes.house.gov/2025/1/social-security-fairness-act-legislation-co-sponsored-by-hayes-signed-into-law-by-president-biden#:~:text=Additionally%2C%20the%20CBO%20estimates%20that,for%20380%2C000%20impacted%20spouses%20and https://www.cbpp.org/research/social-security/repealing-social-securitys-wep-and-gpo-rules-would-be-misguided https://www.cbo.gov/publication/60392#:~:text=In%20CBO's%20projections%2C%20the%20balance,the%20balance%20of%20the%20Disability     Securities offered only by duly registered individuals through Madison Avenue Securities, LLC.

If only God would show up for us like a G.P.S. - That voice that tells us exactly where to go in life. Although God doesn't actually use Garmin to guide us, that doesn't mean he doesn't speak to us and help keep us on the road following him. In this message, we examine what it means to follow Jesus on the journey and how to be better followers.

Today, we step into the familiar story of the Magi following a star. But rather than dwelling on their gifts or their journey, Rev. A asks us to focus on the courage it took to defy the most powerful man in Judea—Herod.
