By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. I didn’t label this image with the location like I usually do. Without that label can you know where this road is, where it is going? All you know for sure is that it is a paved road in the fall. I am not sure I would just follow a road without having some idea of where the road would go. I spent many hours pouring over tour books and Internet sites when I planned our last two road trips. Now think about Abraham, a man that God called to leave his home and follow where God would lead. He didn’t know the road or plan the trip. He just obeyed God. God asks us to do the same thing. This is faith - to be willing to take the road that God lays before you without knowing where it is going. Thankfully we do have a guide in God’s word. Study it and then get on the road.
Prayer Master Give us courage to take the road you lay before us. Guide us home to you through your word. Amen
