Two months ago<\/strong>, we sold our house, put all we own into storage, and set out on an adventure as a family.<\/p>\n We’re traveling the country, making new friends, visiting old ones, starting churches, and building a lot of memories along the way. As we go, we’re observing how God is moving in different parts of the country and keeping our eyes open for the next place to relocate.<\/p>\n We just crossed mile 5,964…<\/p>\n We’re learning to depend on God and each other more. We’ve seen God provide surprisingly well many times, whether it’s housing, a strategic ministry opportunity, rest time, or just good places to get away and have fun together. As I oscillate between watching the highway ahead and glancing in the rearview mirror, I have smiled many times watching my kids maturing together and learning to function like a “pack”, counting on each other for friendship and support in new places.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n We’re learning much on our journey…<\/p>\n We all need direction from God. When we seek Him, He often answers directly.\u00a0Sometimes He leads us on a journey, an adventure.\u00a0He’s the God of the process as much as the destination.<\/em><\/p>\n “Follow me….”<\/p>\n Where are you seeking God for direction? Be prayerful, be wise, be courageous, and be willing to take risks as you trust Him. That’s the adventure of living by faith. And God promises that our faith pleases God and has great rewards (Hebrews 11:6)<\/p>\n Be encouraged this week as you continue your own journey of following Jesus in the great adventure of life.<\/p>\n If you want to read further, below are a few highlight of our travels so far, with insights we’re learning along the way.<\/p>\n\n
