A Prayer for your journey

"You both precede me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head." Psalm 139:5

DAY 18- Pack up camp, gather the family, we are headed to the village of Nazareth. There we will meet up with Joseph and Mary.  Oh my goodness we are getting close! If everyone is ready let’s head out!

Zechariah: Lord we praise You, we praise Your mighty name.  You are and will forever be the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.  We stand in awe of Your holiness.  Thank You for the wonderful privilege of being Your children.

Father thank you so much for all of our sweet friends and family that have gathered together over theses last 18 days to hear the stories of Your greatness.  As they leave us to begin their journey to Bethlehem we ask that You both proceed and follow them.

Lord we ask that as they travel You will begin to do a work within them. That You will prepare their hearts for what they will hear and see over the next 7 days. We ask that You remove any and all distractions so they can put all their attention on You.

Go with them now Lord as they leave us to meet up with Mary and Joseph. Bless their time together Lord and again thank You thank You for the opportunity to be a part of this wonderful journey. In Jesus name, Amen.

We have enjoyed each and every one of you so much. Elizabeth and I will continue to pray for you as you journey the rest of the way. Give Joseph and Mary our love.  Just follow the light that precedes you it is Jesus leading the way.
