The Wilderness

I will take my children into the Wilderness and there I will speak tenderly to them. I will restore their fruitfulness and turn their valley of trouble into a door of hope. Hosea 2:14-15

I am leaving this afternoon for Wisconsin, Fredrick Wisconsin to be exact. As I mentioned in a previous blog I will be renting out a prayer cabin at the Wilderness Fellowship Ministries, to spend a couple of Days with God. I will come home on Thursday. I will have two full days with God. I have no agenda, and no expectations. I am just going to show up, and see what God has planed for me.

When I fasted for Lent, I had an objective for my fasting. By the time Lent was over, I was a bit disappointed that I didn’t quite accomplish what I wanted to. Click here to read my blog titled, “Left at the Alter.” That is why I am going into the Wilderness with no agenda or expectations, because there will be no disappointment, just quality time along with God.

I will bring my bibles, some worship music, and other miscellaneous reading material. I decided that I will not be fasting on this trip. I will not be eating any huge meals, but I will be bringing food. I am excited because there will be no distractions, kids, TV, cell phone, and the time won’t matter because there will be nowhere else that I will have to be.

I will be coming home on Thursday and leaving on Friday for another camping trip with my family, so I don’t know if I will have time to post a blog on Thursday or not, but I will do my best, otherwise I will post one next Monday.

On a final thought and on a totally unrelated subject, I want to give you a few things to think about. Who is Jesus Christ to you? If you died today, do you believe that you would go to Heaven or Hell, why or why not?
