"Dusty Feet" Our Summer Journey... Entry #4

OK…so over the past few days… there’s been some whining and complaining… and some kicking and screaming as our flesh is being emptied of self.  And an occasional “are we there yet” has been uttered. And to be honest, we may feel like we want to plop down, dig our heels in and say “I don’t want to do this anymore, it’s too hard.”

But, if we stop for a moment and are very still…


We can hear the gentle whisper of … “Come to Me, you who are weary … and I will give you rest…”
We can see the mountains of obstacles crumbling before us and moving into the sea.
We can feel the potter’s wheel turning as the Lord moves and molds us.
And we can learn to appreciate the experiences of the journey on this dusty road to new places.

Lord, about these new places.   Your Word says in Jeremiah 33:3 NLT, “Ask Me and I will tell you some remarkable secrets about what is going to happen here.”
Lord, we’re asking.

In the mean time, we’re on the road again.
