Knowing where to go to


“The world gets out of the way for the person who knows where he is going”
- Unknown

For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers: our days on the earth are as a shadow, and there is none abiding
1 Chronicles 29:15

Indeed, the Master will continue to rescue me from every harmful thing and preserve me for his celestial Kingdom. To him be the glory throughout all future periods of time. Amen.
2 Timothy 4:18


“All these died in faith, without receiving the promises, but having seen them and having welcomed them from a distance, and having confessed that they were strangers and exiles on the earth. For those who say such things make it clear that they are seeking a country of their own. And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, God having provided something better for us, that they should not be made perfect apart from us.”
Hebrews 11:13-14, 39-40

My God, grant that I deliberately go forward in this life
and give that I put my steps in the right direction with the right intentions
and let me grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Him be the glory, now and forever!
