here were you dispatched on your last trip? Where are you going now? Where will you be

dispatched on your next trip? As a trucker, your goal is to arrive safely at your destination. There is no certainty that you will arrive safely, but you will use all of your skills as a truck driver to attain this goal.

However, there is a final destination that you have total control over. At the end of your life, you will be dispatched either to heaven or to hell. It is your choice to make. Your company dispatcher will have no say-so on this trip, because you are your own dispatcher, and you have the opportunity to choose your own destination.

You could choose to spend eternity in hell, where you would suffer pain, agony, and anguish forever. Wouldn't you rather live in a place of no pain, sorrow, worries, trials, temptations, and failures? None of these exist in heaven; instead, heaven is a place of peace and happiness forever. The Bible says that heaven has twelve foundations made of precious stones, streets of gold, walls of jasper, gates of pearl, and a refreshing river of life flowing through it. Wouldn't you regret missing a place like this for your final destination? Sure you would! Jesus, God's Son, does not want you to miss heaven either. When He spoke to His disciples, He told them, "In my Father's house are many mansions...I go to prepare a place for you." (John 14:2). Jesus will prepare a place for you as well, if you will simply accept the payment He has already made for you. He shed His blood and

willingly gave His life for you, so your eternal destination will be in heaven.

As a truck driver, you follow a map to arrive at your destination. The Bible also gives a map which you must follow in order to become a Christian and live for all eternity in heaven.

The first stop is that you must realize you are a sinner. The Bible states, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:" (Romans 3:10). "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;" (Romans 3:23).

The second stop on the Romans' map is that you must realize that your sin has an eternal cost. Romans 6:23 states, "For the wages of sin is death..." This death is eternal separation from God in hell.

The third stop is that you must know that you cannot save yourself or pay the cost of your sin. The Bible says, "Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight..." (Romans 3:20).

Next, you must realize that God has provided the way for you to be saved. "But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8).

Your fifth stop on the Romans' Map is that you must place your complete faith in Jesus Christ. The Bible

states, "Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe..." (Romans 3:22). "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." (Romans 10:9).

Do you believe that Jesus Christ alone can save you? He will, if you will simply ask Him. "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Romans 10:13). If you will accept Jesus Christ as your Saviour, please pray this prayer or one similar to it: Dear God, I confess to you that I am a sinner and that I deserve to die and go to hell forever to pay for my sins. I believe that Jesus died and shed His blood on the cross in my place. I now receive Jesus as my personal Saviour and ask You to forgive me of all my sins and give me eternal life. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
