Psalm 121:7-8
The Lord will keep you from all harm – He will watch over your life; the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore
I like the ‘coming and going’ bit of that Psalm. When I was flicking through my bible on the plane this morning I stumbled upon those verses. When I’m on the road I do feel close to God because I’m away from others that I’m very close to. My family and friends. God is who I’m traveling with and its great comfort to know that He’s with me, watching over me. I have a long two weeks ahead of me. And as much as I’m excited to go to China I know that it’s hard place to live if you’re a Christian. I don’t think there’s a high Christian community in Switzerland either. As for the UK….it’s not very British to talk about it! But, God will be with me, which means He’s in all those places. I pray He will shine through me. Even in the London rain.
Pray with me
Heavenly Father, it’s a great comfort to know that you’re with us. 3000 miles way from home or a 50 minute train ride. We give thanks for all our blessing and forgiveness when we’re too wrapped up in our work and travels to notice them – Amen!
