Genesis 24:56 But he said to them, ‘Do not delay me, since the Lord has made my journey successful; let me go, that I may go to my master.’
God calls us into lots of different kinds of journeys. I believe that God still sometimes calls us to move physically from place to place as we read about regularly in the Bible. I believe also that God calls us to reach out to certain people, to become involved in a certain activity or ministry in life, to give of ourselves in various ways. God calls us and promises to bless our journeys.
Whether our journeys are physical/geographical or of a more spiritual/esoteric nature, God promises to bless them. If God has called you on a journey, God will bless that journey through to the end. The other important thing to remember is the admonition we read above: if God has called a journey into being, best not to get in the way. Whether it's your journey or someone else's, let God's path be open. It will go well for you.
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
