How’s your journey going
I love this camera bag tag, I have on one of my Domke bags. I have long subscribed to this philosophy, that it’s the journey not the destination. Spiritually, it’s both! If we belong to Him we know the destination, the journey is all down here, and it’s all about how many will we take with us!!! The problem is do you have a plan on how you will try to get people to decide to want the same destination you are going to?
Can we tell people where they should want to go? No, not really, most people will not listen to that kind of advise. Can we scare them into a decision for Christ, some have certainly tried, but I don’t think that works as often as some people think it does. It is always best to see how Jesus did it! It is simple if you read the New Testament, He loved them until they couldn’t resist!!! It may seem too simple but peopel don’t care how much you know, until they know how much you care!!! Christ proved it. His love compelled others to want to know Him, and follow Him.
Are you compelling others to want to know your Heavenly Father? Love is the Answer…..
blessings,
the pilgrim

My bags are packed. Homeward Bound.
Thanks Bill! Just words I needed to hear. I’m in about the same spot in the journey as you…turning 66 in a month. Half retired, and using the newly found time to feel my way into what God would have me do with this next season. It is a journey and ‘thus far, he has been with us’. Showing people His love, sharing what we have seen and experienced, offering comfort that we too have received…what more is there? What a joyful thought that our lives could be compelling…maybe a sweet aroma?
I enjoy your blog…look forward to the posts.

as always, constantly inspiring…
