The Journey
|
High in the Sierra Nevada mountains of southern California in the scorching summer of 1963 a young man at a church choir camp stepped out and walked down the aisle entrusting his life to Jesus Christ.
It was a true mountain top experience for this sixteen year old. Unbeknownst to him, it was also the start of a journey; a journey that would take the rest of his life.
He was excited in the beginning. When he came down off that mountain he went and talked to his pastors—but they offered nothing. In fact, they were rather negative about it. So he lived his life as best he could; which wasn’t all that good.
That was the ignominious beginning in my Christian walk--my journey. However I have come to realize I am not on my journey, I am on God's journey and on His mission.
The journey He had for me; for each one of us, was established before the foundations of the world. My pilgrimage, like yours, continues; only now with a much greater God-given focus than before … and a call, hence DiscipleshipDynamx.org.
We each are on preordained, predestined journeys. I pray you might include DiscipleshipDynamx.org in your journey--through partnering with us in your prayers, your time, or your resources.
“The LORD is my light and my salvation . . . Teach me Your way, O LORD... The battle is the Lord's”
Psalm 27:1,11; 1 Samuel 17: 4
