February 3, 2013Where am I Going:“I strain to reach the end of the race and receive the prize for which God is calling us up to heaven, because of what Jesus did for us.” (Philippians 3:14)
Are we really going to Jerusalem? How much longer before we get there? Are you sure we’re heading in the right direction? These are questions that may bring back memories of past journeys traveled as a child or with children. As a child, we must trust that the adult knows the way. As an adult we know that if we follow the map and continue, we will eventually reach our goal, whether physical or spiritual.
Question: Do I have physical and spiritual goals for this week? What is the one thing I can do to help achieve my physical and/or spiritual goal?
Amazing to note that the 2nd week of walking totaled over 1500 miles which has brought our total to about 2100 miles. With about ten more sign-ups this week, it's pretty much guaran-teed that there will be no problem reaching our goal. I put together a suggested itinerary that will actually add up to about 7,000 (as the crow flies) miles.

If we continue an average of 1000 per week we will reach the Holy Land with time to spend visiting various locations of Jesus' ministry.
