The Journey that matters is the journey the Lord has for us.
“Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that I will shew thee.” Genesis 12:1
As you consider Abram and his call to leave his country, his family and his father’s house, ask yourself, what is it that you have not yielded to the Lord so that your journey will not be hindered by your disobedience? What are you holding on to with both hands? What is it that you are fearful of? This place that we call home is nothing more than a motel. This life is short and we move forward by faith. My friend, pull up the stakes and travel lite! We have a home awaiting us in heaven and a life to be lived now as God leads the way. Don’t get comfortable with the temporary. Keep your eyes upon the Lord Jesus and the real journey that He has for you. His plan and will for your life is above and beyond anything that is rooted in or of this world.

Faith never knows where it is being led. But it loves and knows the one who is leading. Oswald Chambers
The Bible says, “Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer the Holy One of Israel; I am the Lord thy God which teacheth thee to profit, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go” (Isaiah 48:17.) God’s plan will always be the best plan for the journey that He has for us. The lost often talk about living it up in their sin. My friend it is past time for us to be living for the Lord and under the canopy of His provision, power, position and plan that He has for us. That will be the journey that matters.
