Here’s to new adventures! Sometimes, often at times unlooked for, change happens. Seasons change in life as winter-to-spring-to-summer-to fall (unless you are in Texas and that becomes a big jumbled mess. . . .)
A recent conversation I was a part of centered around adventure and how God’s design for us is that, and adventure. Not always fun, but definitely exciting, and often upon reflection, having successfully navigated certain legs of the journey, feeling a sense of awe and accomplishment knowing that God has come through yet again. This life, made up of so many and varied adventures, is itself the big adventure. The Lord is with us throughout and will see us through. Sometimes we come out a bit bruised, but always better for the experience.Father God, thank you for your goodness and grace. We give you glory and praise as we humbly acknowledge your sovereignty. I pray that as we move about in this world, this great adventure, you fill us with your Holy Spirit to serve you where we are; that you will present us with opportunities to share how you have brought us through the tumultuous times and provided safety and rest on our way. Let us not be in fear of the unknown, but embrace the challenges of life, not as a barrier but as a launching point to the great heights of your amazing love. I thank you in advance for what I have yet to experience today. In the precious name of Jesus, Amen.
