Where's the Path?

Hey Discover Church Volunteers-hope you are gaining some new insights from the Lord during this week long time of prayer and fasting. I read this devotional this week by Max Lucado and thought that it was very pertinent to our devotion today. 


There’s a story of a man on an African safari deep in the jungle.  The guide assigned to him had a machete and was whacking away the tall weeds and thick underbrush. 
The traveler, tired and hot, and a bit frustrated said, “Where are we?  Do you know where you’re taking me?  Where’s the path?”
The seasoned guide stopped—looked back at the man and said, “I am the path!”
We ask the same questions, don’t we?  We ask God, “Where are you taking me?  Where’s the path?” 
And he, like the guide, doesn’t tell us.  Oh He may give us a hint or two, but that’s all.
If He did, would we understand?  Would we comprehend?  No, like the traveler, we’re unacquainted with this jungle. 
Jesus gives us a far greater gift.  He says, “I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”  Matthew 28:19-20
He gives us Himself!
-Max Lucado




Are you on the course that God specifically designed for you? Are you taking the necessary steps of faith so you can be all that God intended for you? Take time now to reflect and ask God to show you the specific assignments that He has for you.



Journey well fellow sojourner.

NO LIMITS --- 2012

As we begin today with our week long corporate prayer and fasting, we can look at Nehemiah's example in Nehemiah 1:4-11, which shows that Prayer clears our Vision for God's purpose. Don't miss out on what God wants to do in and through your life.  We serve a limitless God who loves you and is calling His people to set aside everything that distracts and to keep our eyes on Him, the Author and Perfecter of our faith.
