Priceless
Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now, and don't get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you dal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes. Matthew 6 – The Message
Two blisters, fording a river twice for a camping spot, 5-6 hours of hiking including a partial night hike, up and down and around mountainous terrain to sleep on the river beach with nothing more than an extra pair of clothes and long johns on two tarps for bedding and one tarp for a blanket and little to no food for the hike and going to bed hungry …..priceless……in a way yes,but it's acutally no.
*What has truly been priceless has been communiing with the Spirit of God and hearing Him answer questions and concerns of my heart………now that is priceless*
Over the past weeks God has told me, "Abide in ME, Abide in ME." Each day in the morning and sometime evening we seek a word from the Lord. Jesus says, "Peace, be still, wait on Me." So we read scripture, meditate on it or we share a concern of our heart and we listen for a response – i.e. I asked God for a specific word and He told me to sing a song to Him. Any song. I tried with my mind but failed. Finally I sang from my heart/spirit on my way back to camp and my soul was lifted, there was a skip to my step and I know this was my song to the Lord.
Awesome! Okay it's only been ten days and there are 30 more to go in the wilderness. I thank all who have supported me and those who are praying for me and the men. You can pray for the Lord to direct me in leadership and working with young adults and pray that we grow in unity as our spirits grow in unity with the Lord's Spirit.
David
