Blessed are those whose strength is in you, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage. Psalm 84:5 NIV Blessed are those who rely on their own strength? Blessed are those who have it all together? Blessed are those who never need anyone? Blessed are those who find strength in you (& the you is found in the previous verses - Yahweh) It's OK to acknowledge our weakness, our failure, our hurts... Our hearts are set on pilgrimage - literally the highway. The road The journey Our hearts are set on the journey. Where we are is not the destination, not the endpoint... Our strength is in God, and our mind is set on the journey - in that we find blessing :) #theroad #inthistogether #blessing #strength #lifeisajourney #psalms #psalm84

Abram traveled through the land as far as the site of the great tree of Moreh at Shechem... So he built an altar there to the Lord... From there he went on toward the hills east of Bethel and pitched his tent...There he built an altar to the Lord and called on the name of the Lord .  Then Abram set out and continued toward the Negev. Genesis 12:6-9 NIV We often hear life referred to as a journey. Abram was on a journey. Doesn't seem that he knew the destination, or that he was doing any great work for God along the way... But he did do two things as he journeyed: 1. He worshipped God 2. He prayed Maybe wherever we are on this journey we call life, if we regularly stop and worship (might be in church, and/or with other people, or on our own) and 6th pray. Maybe our journey would be a bit different if we did that a bit more along the way... #dontwaittilsunday #lifeisajourney #stoptoworship #pray
