I just completed a 72 hour spiritual journey called Walk to Emmaus (NET Emmaus walk #13-119 in Lone Star, TX, sat at the table of Matthew). Those of you that have attended an Emmaus walk understand just how powerful, intense and impactful the three day event is. Although the Emmaus Community is often "intentionally vague" in order to prevent preconceived expectations so that each "pilgrim" can receive a truly customized experience, I will say that the program is designed to grow and inspire Christians to a deeper faith and understanding in our relationship with Christ and inspire us to live a life that will minister to others in our respective families and churches, as well as our communties and the world, as we show God's love through our actions.
It marked the first time in MANY years that I have gone without a phone, watch (they didn't want us to keep time) or any electronic device for any extended period, and being without those things for over 72 hours was definitely a test of my faith, obedience and trust that God (through the help of good people) would take care of my business and family during that time.
I didn't post anything before I left because I didn't know what to expect, but I appreciate the prayers and agape love demonstrated by those that knew I was taking this journey. I ask for your continued prayers as I continue on the "Fourth Day" of my journey. I ask that you in the TBH Community would lift me up constantly with encouragement and prayer, as well as in holding me accountable in showing God's love through my words and actions.
