Continuing from last week on what to bring for the spiritual journey. Last week we covered how you will need a good map. A map that shows you where to go and how to get there. Our map is this Bible and we need to know it and have it with us.
Second, you will need a good solid pair of shoes.
God says we should put on the shoes of readiness. Yet we are getting used to our shoes of readiness being more a pair of wolly toe socks then the marching boots they were meant to be.
There will be sharp rocks on the journey. There may be dangerous insects and venomous serpents. You need a strong pair of shoes that can keep up with you. Lace up those boots. You do not want to make this walk in socks.

I am a young woman who grew up in British Columbia. In BC was all I ever wanted; I had my poodle (Max) and all my friends, Saturdays at the Vancouver Aquarium and Sunday afternoons at one of my favorite beaches it was paradise. But God had a different plan for my life and my dad's job landed us in Alberta and now where I remain, in small town Souris Manitoba. The transitions from paradise to prairie were difficult and I will admit that now 10 years later I still refer to home as Abbotsford BC. Through this crazy pathway trek across Canada I have had one true constant, God; and though none of it was easy, everything that has happened in my life has formed in me a true lasting friendship with the one I call Immanuel. Because no matter how far from home we are God is with us, and thanks to God I have found an almost completely over looked beauty in Manitoba. If you open your eyes you will see that God has planted wondrous things everywhere you go.
