Don't Miss The View

 

From there they set out

             and camped...

From there they set out

            and camped...

And from there

      they continued...

And from the wilderness

    they went on...

Numbers 21. 12,13,16,18

(This passage pretty much

   describes our many moves

             as a family,

every few years

     to a new place.

Are we there yet?

But for all of us,

in each place on our journeys,

    in every new experience

    or continuance of the familiar,

God uses it to change and equip us

           a little more.

There is nothing random in this

     nor wandering,

but instead, learning how to follow,

how to be faithful,

and how to trust Him,

even when we don't quite know

   why we are doing this

   or why we are even here.

For His purposes.

For His glory.

And all in His name.)

O LORD,

You take us on paths

       we both know

       and have never seen,

that we would know You more.

Please help us to set out

      and camp and set out again,

even through the wilderness,

the miry bogs,

the highways and byways,

knowing You don't just

        give us a map.

You walk with us

     every step of the way.

Help us to not miss the view.
