What is Our Walk of Faith and Departure Date

The time draws near for Rachel and me to embark on Our Walk of Faith. God has lined so many things up so many times that I very often stand dumbfounded contemplating His infinite wisdom. I praise Him for His perfect timing and His eternal planning.

On September 29, 2006 Rachel and I will begin Our Walk of Faith commencing at Smithfield-Selma High School (SSS) at 2:45 pm. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) at SSS will hold a meeting on the soccer field. We will share a time of fellowship, prayer, and scripture reading. Everyone is invited.

Following the meeting we will set out on foot for the adventure that God has trail blazed for us. Every day as we wake-up, before we set out to do anything, we will read scripture and pray extensively. God will send us our work from day to day—some days we may be working in a church, other days in a soup kitchen, or even possibly with an FCA at another school. God knows all the details, our job is to seek Him first…“He will give you all you need from day to day if you make the Kingdom of God your primary concern.” (Luke 12:31)

So many times in our society, I feel that we hit the ground running day after day without even consulting God to see if what we are doing for that day lines up with what He had planned for us to do for that day. Quite possibly, the reason why many people are not satisfied in their careers is because they have not sought God’s advice. If your plans don’t align with God’s plans, then obviously there will be discomfort or dissatisfaction.

Therefore, Rachel and I will seek God 1^st each day and ask Him to show us where we are to work, where we are to stay, and where we are to eat—believing by faith He will show us. In essence, God will frame our day before we even move. At the end of the day, we will give thanks to Him for providing. We will not commit to do anything the next day because God hasn’t given us the next day yet. We want to be available for God’s plans on a day to day basis…if we start planning out the next week or next month we may miss out on what God had in store day to day.

We invite you to pray for us and if you are in the area where we are traveling, we invite you to walk with us! We hope to be in South America sometime in 2007…if that is what God has in store.

A thought to leave you with…“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bow lines, sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore! Dream!” --Mark Twain

Peace in Christ
