Examples of guidance in a Sentence

1. Abdel Monemim:

   At the beginning of each new day, I ask for protection and eternal blessing And divine guidance and protection from everything that is dangerous or negative in life and blessing for everything in your life and guidance so that I can get what I want with ease And make yourself under divine providence, and you will be in complete and complete safety, for you deserve it.

2. Eric Foley:

   First lady Ri seems to have been portrayed as offering guidance – not to her husband, of course, but to the factory workers. It is rare for anyone other than Kim Jong Un, or Kim Jong Il or Kim Il Sung before him, to publicly offer guidance to anyone, even at the highest level, most trusted people are rarely ever shown doing that. So this certainly shows a high level of official trust in her. It also suggests an effort to bolster and soften the public positioning of the Pyongyang line to have him visit a cosmetics factory, and have them both appearing to offer guidance to the workers.

3. Shakti Gawain:

   Every time you don't follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness.

5. Jerome Dunn:

   True to DARPA's mission, EXACTO has demonstrated what was once thought impossible: the continuous guidance of a small-caliber bullet to target, this live-fire demonstration from a standard rifle showed that EXACTO is able to hit moving and evading targets with extreme accuracy at sniper ranges unachievable with traditional rounds. Fitting EXACTO's guidance capabilities into a small .50-caliber size is a major breakthrough and opens the door to what could be possible in future guided projectiles across all calibers.
