A Trip to Nowhere

A Trip to Nowhere

The other evening I was visiting with a young lady in my neighborhood and she was sharing with me about a wonderful trip she and her husband were planning.  It sounded quite delightful.  This brought to mind a special trip my husband and I had taken several years ago.  He had wanted to go to a tool store in Kentucky and since Kentucky and Alabama are quite close we were afforded several days to do anything we might enjoy.  We termed our trip a “Trip to Nowhere.”  We toured the Blue Ridge Parkway and many other lovely sights.  Nowhere turned out to be a wonderful destination.

Thinking about our “trip to nowhere” this morning my heart was gladdened that Jesus destination for our life is nothing like a “trip to nowhere.”  While here on earth He has wonderful adventures planned for us with our final destination Heaven.  How blessed we are to have a Savior that does not drop us here on earth without opportunities to serve Him and when our time on earth ends He has a wonderful destination for us.  More often than not our Jesus trip is revealed day by day with Jesus at the helm.  How thankful I am that He is so involved in my life that my final destination is secure and until that day His promise that He will never leave me nor forsake me is sealed by His blood.


Psalm 37:23 The steps of a man are established by the Lord; and He delights in his way.
