It had been longer and more difficult than they anticipated. They just needed to keep moving…

He’d done all he could, now to was time to trust and go.

The real reason for the Christmas season…Jesus

He needed to remember to move on

It was going to be a long walk, but they had no choice and he had no ides how it was going to happen.

Pursuing a relationship with God needs the overflow of that relationship to spill out to the world

Taking the time to see beyond your expectations.

Things aren’t always what you think they are. Learning to look with diffeent eyes.

A reminder of who you are in God, always.

Isaiah says that those of us who trust, hope, in God will exchange their weak strength for Gods strength. The exchange lets us find a new strength, one far stronger than our own. A strength that will enable us to walk and run with an energy that lasts. One that doesn’t quickly run out or leave us exhausted.

One of the most difficult things for us to do is surrender & yield. Why? The simple answer is that it means giving up control, letting go of our agendas and ways, our influence and wishes. Whatever the reasons, we assert our control in many small ways and that interferes with our relationship with God.

Joshua 24 NLT illustrate the steps to surrendering and yielding.

Don’t be too quick to act or interpret Gods word, his revelations, his plans and steps, let them sit with you a while so they can ‘set’ in your spirit then rise to your heart and mind. Leave the plans alone.

Faith is a verb, a doing word. What you believe, have faith for, speak out over your life, will always call for a step or action to take it by the hand and walk. To move forward in life in faith.
