Thats so cute! My one and only g-granddaughter is not talking enough yet to call me anything. Also, I don’t get to see her a whole lot, which makes me sad. My granddaughter is a teacher and Braelyn goes to a small nursery pkace and they do lead such busy, busy lives, I try to understand. What else can I do? LOL! “I accept the things I can’t change.” LOL!

A Companion On The Road
November 17, 2011

I love to walk Idaho’s paths and trails and enjoy its grandeur and picturesque beauty. I’m often reminded that these treks are symbolic of our spiritual journey, for the Christian life is simply walking—with Jesus alongside as our companion and guide. He walked through the land of Israel from one end to the other, gathering disciples, saying to them, “Follow Me” (Matt. 4:19).

The journey is not always easy. Sometimes giving up seems easier than going on, but when things get difficult, we can rest a while and renew our strength. In Pilgrim’s Progress, John Bunyan describes the arbor on Hill Difficulty where Christian caught his breath before continuing the climb. His scroll provided comfort, reminding him of the Lord’s continual presence and sustaining power. He got a second wind so he could walk a few more miles.

Only God knows where the path will take us, but we have our Lord’s assurance, “I am with you always” (Matt. 28:20). This is not a metaphor or other figure of speech. He is real company. There is not one hour without His presence, not one mile without His companionship. Knowing He’s with us makes the journey lighter.

When life becomes a heavy load
An upward climb, a winding road,
In daily tasks, Lord, let me see
That with me You will always be. —D. De Haan

As you travel life’s weary road, let Jesus lift your heavy load.

Read: Matthew 4:18-22

Jesus, walking by the Sea of Galilee, saw two brothers . . . . Then He said to them, “Follow Me.” —Matthew 4:18-19
Bible in a year:
Ezekiel 5-7; Hebrews 12

A great message from ODB this morning, Rus.
It’s a personal message for me as I travel my present journey. Jesus is beside me all the way.

Good morning, DD.

You will be in our thoughts and prayers as you face the chemo and the surgery.

We are praying for complete healing for you and comfort for Mrs. DD. I am also praying that God will guide your medical team.

Hi, LTOS.

Sounds like you had an absolutely wonderful Wednesday even though you missed Cain’s speech.

It is great to see that Cain has support from so many.
