Intersection Ahead
Walking on a Road Trip with Jesus is always interesting. A person can never say that doing anything with Our Lord is boring! There’s always something up, but you have to pay attention to see it. We miss so many things that Jesus does, I do believe, because we are not paying attention to the […]
Abiding (Or How To Keep Walking With Jesus…)
There are many definitions for the word “abide.” Here are some: (1) To remain, continue, stay, (2) to have one’s abode, dwell, reside, (3) to continue in a particular position, attitude, or relationship, (4) to last, (5) to tolerate, put up with, endure. Another word in modern English is “remain.’ Stay. As you set out […]
The Comfort of Jesus’ Staff
As soon as we set out on our summer road-trip, the freedom got the best of me and I ran down a side path by myself. Have you ever done this? It’s summer. I’m on the edge of being manic and am trying to pay attention — haven’t totally fallen off the edge and won’t, […]
Please Stay Tuned…
So sorry that I haven’t written the next installment on this blog. I have been sick with a bad and lingering cold. There was more in store for me when I wrote about God being in total control, directing our steps, telling us when to go and when to stop. I’m trying to get over […]
Who Turned On The Rain?
And away we go…as we walk, the clouds gather up and it begins to rain. Well, isn’t that a fine”howdy-do” on the first day of our trip! We figured that when this trip began the sun would be shining to beat the band, shining so brightly that we’d need to dig sunglasses out of the […]
Let’s Pray! …And Then We Set Out!
When a group in our church goes on a trip, we pray in the vehicles before we leave the parking lot. Do you do that every day? I don’t, and I think I should. Even if I’m alone, I should probably be praying before I crank up. Hmmm, something to remember, yes? So, before we […]
One Last Item …Your Passport!
There is one more item that you’ll need to pack for our summer road trip – your passport. This is the most important item by far, so you’ll need to put it someplace very secure. It has to be guarded and must be with you at all times. The Spirit guards this item best, so […]
Let’s Pack! Part Two
We’re packing for a summer road trip with Christ. We’ve given Him our hearts as Christians, and for some reason we were still sitting in our cells even though the door was opened. We had placed self-imposed chains on ourselves, and even though they weren’t locked we sat there, believing the lie of each chain. […]
Let’s Pack!
We’re going to take the online road trip on this blog. I believe that this is the best way to go, so that everyone will be on the trip as well! To recap, God is calling us to come away with Him on a summertime road trip. We’re volunteering to walk out of our jail cells. Remember? […]
Want To Take An Online Road Trip?
What spiritual season are you in? Are you in a rut, doing the same thing over and over and over? Are you suffering from burnout? Are you zealous right now, with a passion for everything Jesus and everyone knowing Jesus? Or do you just not care for any of it? As Christians, we go from […]
