Jericho or Bust Part 6
Hello from Vienna Austria,
Well I am on my way to Jericho, I have made it across the pond as it were and I am sitting in Vienna with little (read none) sleep since 7am on the 14th. For most of the way over here all I could really think about was one of the last sermons I gave at the CEC.
By the way this is a series on my adventure to Israel if you have not read anything on it may I suggest you start here:
God has been so good to me this past year I sometime think I am living is some kind of fairy tale. He has opened my heart to children, meeting Juanita and her most amazing nephews Ulises and Christian and I cannot forget about my little bro Tyler. He brought me into the CEC and hook with up the Eibel’s and because of this amazing family which I have come to love so much I am on my way to Israel.
It is all that and so very much more. Jesus even set up this entire ministry trip I am on right now and raised up so much support for it it just boggles the my mind. I am financially and prayerfully covered and it makes me love Jesus so much. Thank you all for your prayers and support…Thank you Jesus!
So all the way over the Atlantic all I pondered on this verse I taught on a few Sunday’s ago in the CEC
Song of Songs 2:4-”He has brought me to his banquet hall, and his banner over me is love.
He must really truly love me and his banner over me is love. I am His beloved and I feel so cherished right now as I sit on the floor in the Vienna airport writing this. How long have I run up my own flags over me, flags like failure, stupid, never get it right, etc… No more after this year, I truly know that I am His beloved and His it is His flag pole and only He has the right to run His flag up it.
I know that I am going to face some tough days in the coming months, but as long as I remember that I am truly loved and that he will never forsake me. I know that I will make it.
Next post from the Holy Land!
Mike
